------- Additional comments from jameshfis...@openoffice.org Mon Aug 31 18:00:25 +0000 2009 ------- When saving a file (including autosaving), in any of the OpenOffice suite, the GUI is locked until the save is complete. When a user is working on a file that is in a remote location, or in any case has a low data rate connection to the client, it can take many minutes to save (or autosave) a file, during which time the user has to simply do something else. In my case, I am reporting this issue due to problems working on a file that is stored on a samba share on the local network. The file contains images and is several megabytes in size. During heavy network load it can take up to ten minutes before I am allowed to resume editing. However, it is not clear why this should be the case. The GUI should perhaps be locked while the serialized file representation of the document is compiled in memory from the current state of the document. However, the saving of this could and should be done in a separate process, allowing the GUI to be unlocked in the meanwhile for further editing. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
