I am using version 2.3.0 of OpenOffice.org. My problem is :
Within approximately 10 minutes of opening a new Calc spreadsheet,
Calc causes my computer's CPU to max out at 100%, freezes Calc
operations, and displays Not Responding.
I can open Windows Task Manager and view the activity. No other
programs other than Windows Task Manager are running.
I am using OpenOffice 2.3.0 on a Toshiba 1905-S301 laptop. RAM is
256. Hard drive is 30 GB. OS is Windows XP. No other OS exists
on the hard drive.
I have an 8535 line / 6 column calc spreadsheet open (that started out
as an MS xls) and I'm showing (via task manager):
- idle = 0-2% cpu
- mouse wheel scrolling as fast as I can = 30-41% cpu
- 600 line sum calculation = 6%cpu
This is on a 2.4Ghz 256Mb WindowsXPPro system using OOo 2.3.
Note: this spreadsheet has no macros. If your spreadsheet has macros in
it perhaps that is the problem?
Please reply to [email protected] only.
But if you shutdown OOo, kill the quick starter, and reboot, CPU usage
is normal again. yes? I have seen this a few times on Linux.
There is something else here also, maybe. You said: "No other programs
other than Windows Task Manager are running". Well, there might not be
anything listed in the applications pane, but that is not the same as
saying there is nothing else running. Normally there are a lot of things
running, Some thing look for idle times from the main applications and
then go to work, Certain anti-virus, anti-spyware programs will start to
eat up CPU, Google desktop for sure, Itumes is an oft culprit, any
number of others things. You can then have Windows starting to swap your
stuff out to the virtual memory, you touch the key again and it has to
being it back -
Just curious, you say it happens within 10 minutes, yes. So, what are
you doing during those 10 minutes? How are you utilizing Calc, is it a
process that you repeat often?
