Hi Pierre and Web Kracked
When Task Manage says that soffice.bin is using 90% of CPU surely that means
that soffice.bin is using 90% of CPU, and some other hidden or background
process is not using part of the 90%?.
I recently had to reinstall Windows, so disk fragmentation is not a problem
and I have done all the clean-up tuen-up tasks anyway. Maybe the default
drivers in Windows do not include the best motherboard/chipset, memory, and
hard drive drivers?
Thanks for the suggestion - I will have a look at Process Explorer.
Many thanks, James

Suspecting some program was running in the background and hogging

looked at Windows Task Manager to see what processes were running. Sure
enough, the System Idle process was varying from 98% down to 13% when
some process was hogging the CPU. By watching for a few moments I
determined that it was soffice.bin that was intermittently taking up to
90% of the CPU's attention ... and this was when I wasn't even using
Writer, just had it on the screen, but had not typed a character for a
few minutes.
Hi James,
I had something similar a while back, but eventually traced excessive CPU
usage back to a hard disk hardware problem with the help of Process
Explorer. You might want to try it just to make sure it is OOo.
