Rich - I have spent the last hour trying to answer your Qs. I am using
1.9.118.
The problem appears random on my secretary's new DEll with 1 gig of
RAM. Not nearly as frequent as on the old machine but still a problem.
(P.S. when it is fast - which is 90 percent of the time - it is very
fast. But when it is slow, it is excruciatingly slow.)
I first thought it was slow in just opening/closing / Saving templates.
That didn't appear to be the case.
Next, I thought the problem was that the template was trying to open
with a printer that was offline. This is answered many of the slow
starts and slow closing. But not all and I could not replicate the
problem consistently.
Third, I suspected the problems were macro related - ott docs with
macros dating to Word 97 conversions. Again, a higher rate of VERY
slow starts and VERY slow saving and closing but still not 100 percent.
Fourth I suspected that it had to do with changing directories. No
truth there.
I suspect user configurations but not certain

problem with closing of oo.org itself, without any documents open ?
does the problem also appear if you haven't opened any documents in
that session at all ? how long does it take to close bare oo.org ?

I had the same problem. I had 256ram 1.8ghz processor. I switched
machines (for other reasons) - 512ram and 3.0 ghz pentium. Runs much
faster in closing and opening files. But I am still not convinced
the problem is/was RAM. Files reside on Linux server, but the
machine old & new aare/were XP machines.

how much ram do you have ? if some parts are swapped out, they might
take some time to clean up, though 20 seconds seems much too much.

Just curious: When I have OOo open with no files loaded at all and
I click on the X to close the application, it takes at least 20
seconds to be gone on my good old Pentium II 266 (Mandrake Linux
9.1). This isn't a problem; I just wonder what it's doing that
takes that much time. I can understand slow startup, there's a lot
of data structures, etc. to get initialized and a lot of stuff to
load from disk, but I wouldn't think shutting down would take much
work.
