I think that the OOo developers would be interested in his feedback - especially as it may only be one or two functions which really take so long. Besides this, if you have your own macros to port, obviously you should make your own tests.

The StarBASIC engine itself is very, very slow. Much, much slower than Perl or Ruby, to say nothing of Java or compiled code.
