How much it affects performance literally depends upon how much RAM your system has. > Also, does disabling the Java runtime environment help speed up the > performance If you've got adequate RAM, then disabling the Java Runtime environment doesn't improve performance.

Whilst Base is the only component that explicitly requires the JRE, functionality in the other components might take a hit, due to the reliance on extensions to provide specific functionality. > If someone can provide an explanation of how the Memory settings affect > performance, and under what circumstances, I would really appreciate it. In general, the default settings at ">Tools >Options >Memory" are on the low side. However, changing them, without an adequate amount of RAM, will have a negative impact on performance. IOW, the simplest way to increase performance is: * Increase the amount of RAM in the system; * If Calc is the primary usage, Install, and use a graphics card that LibO is coded for; * Only install dictionaries, grammar checkers, extensions, and templates that are used every day; * Uninstall dictionary, grammar checkers, extensions, and templates that you do not use every day; jonathon _______________________________________________ LibreOffice mailing list LibreOffice@lists.freedesktop.org https://lists.freedesktop.org/mailman/listinfo/libreoffice
