------- Additional comments from jame...@openoffice.org Mon Sep 13 06:46:06 +0000 2010 ------- The version of Openoffice is every version that I have used since I have been opening documents with this format - from Openoffice 2.3 to Openoffice 3.2. The issue is a general performance one - if I try to work on a document with this header, Openoffice performance dreadfully slow. You can see this while scrolling the document - so I'll describe the steps for this: 1. Open up the document I attached 2. Scroll down to the bottom of the document. It scrolls down smoothly. 3. Scroll back up to the top of the document. When it gets to the header Openoffice stumbles and blocks for about half a second (on my computer). 4. Do the same procedure with the resources graph of the System Monitor turned on (in a Gnome environment.). Scrolling down the document registers only a slight increase in CPU activity; however scrolling up results in sometimes intense CPU activity. I've had it go up to 80% CPU on one of the three processors on this machine! 5. Delete the part of the header which says "Language Department" and repeat the steps above. There is no problem in scrolling up now. 6. Open up the document with an office suite not based on Openoffice - it should handle the scrolling without incident. Those are the steps to reproduce just one of the problems I encounter with documents with this header (it was made in WordArt as far as I can tell). The trouble is that the performance problems with these documents seem general: whenever I work on a document that has this header in Openoffice, performance is poor. When I talked about crashes, I meant that Openoffice has on occasion broken its teeth completely on documents with this header - fortunately this is very rare. --------------------------------------------------------------------- Please do not reply to this automatically generated notification from Issue Tracker.
