2.0 requirements from
http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/source/sys_reqs_20.html":
Microsoft Windows
      * Windows 98, Windows ME, Windows 2000 (Service Pack 2 or higher),
        Windows XP, Windows 2003
      * 128 Mbytes RAM
      * 200 Mbytes available disk space
      * 800 x 600 or higher resolution with at least 256 colors

1.1 requirements from 
http://www.openoffice.org/dev_docs/source/sys_reqs_11.html 
      * Microsoft Windows 98, ME, NT (Service Pack 6 or higher), 2000 or
        XP
      * Pentium compatible PC, 64 MB RAM, 250 MB available hard disk
        space 

so memory is the likely limit. I will say that at the 64Mb limit even
1.1.5 is SLOW at responding.
