Hi,

I'm having the exact same issue.

To give an idea of the performance, I downloaded this document:
http://launchpadlibrarian.net/21459319/Vocab.ods
(found in https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/openoffice.org/+bug/313993)

I selected cell A1 and started spinning the mouse wheel to see how long
it would take me to scroll through the 372 lines of the document. I kept
the wheel spinning to make sure there would be no gap in input (this
later turned out to be overly ambitious as I had the document still
scrolling after 15 minutes). It took exactly 90 seconds for me to see
line 372. At the top of the window I saw line 336. It seems Calc jumps 3
lines when using the wheel, making for 112 screen redraws. That's
roughly 0.8 secs per redraw. Together with the fact that X jumped to
roughly 85 percent CPU usage during this, I would say it's probably
related to a problem with the hardware acceleration. I have made sure
it's enabled in the Options, and it is. I also did the same test with it
disabled, and the results were the same. I also tried all variantions of
font antialiasing - no changes in performance in any combination.

I should note that I am sure I have a working graphics card, I know this
as I stumbled into some problems with it a while back and ran the XFIX
procedure during startup, which solved it nicely and gave me my hardware
acceleration back. I'm running an up-to-date Jaunty.

I did try the suggestion above and installed OOo 3.1.0 in the ppa.
Absolutely no change at all.

I'll be glad to try things and report on my configuration if I can just
get suggestions and instructions.

Best regards,
Fredrik
