I have a project managed by an odm file that ends up being ca 1600 pages

(even on such simple things as refreshing the window after remapping
it).  I've turned of recording/displaying changes,  upped the graphics
cache numbers, set the swap directory to a ram disk, and turned off all
to-disk swapping; nothing helps.   This is on a 2 CPU machine with gig's
of ram.

I'm currently trying  to print the project to a file (postscript
format).  This takes 4-6 hours, with 1 of the CPU's running at 100% [BTW
is LO multi-threaded?].  The resulting postscript file is big, (about
350M) but not that big.

I'm on a Slackware Linux box.

Any suggestions?

David,
There is a known problem with LO and Encapsulated PostScript (EPS) graphics. They slow down video rendering tremendously, causing frustrating long scrolling time. This may also cause a problem with printing, I never tried it. When I converted my document's EPS images to JPEG, LO rendering/scrolling sped up tremendously.
Hope this helps.
