------- Additional comments from [EMAIL PROTECTED] Fri Oct 3 13:06:47 +0000 2008 ------- Hi *, I've made a small patch to reduce dramatically the time needed to perform a MailMerge. I've profiled it with callgrind and find that MergeDocuments was waiting for ever on system method. After looking it, I realised that the master document was reopened with an "exec" style call for every single document generated. That is to say, a MailMerge action for 1000 documents was like opening 1000 times OOo on the master documents. I did some tests and found a tricky way to pass around this. If I restore back the master document with "Undo()" calls, MailMerge operation runs as fine as the original one, produces the same result but is seven times faster. Our tests were on a master document without header & footer, but the performance gain should be the same for any kind of documents. -> os : Would you please review the patch & tell us if it can be integrated into mainline ?
