Thanks for this - the Windows memory settings below make it quick to load on
Win XP too.

Have you tweaked the memory settings in Tools-Options?
3.01 starts as fast if not faster here than Office 2007 on Vista...
The behavior is very different, right now, from the immediate past. If I
right click quick starter and select new text document, starting is nearly
instant. If I double click a document, it starts very quickly.
I emphasize that this has NOT been my experience, and I cannot point to
changes that might affect the loading time. I'll see how things go.
The Tools | Options | OpenOffice.org > Memory settings are exactly as they
were when I installed OO.o 3.0.1:
Number of steps 100
Graphics Cache 9 MB
Memory per object 2.4 MB
Remove from Memory after 10 min
Number of objects cached 20
Box checked for load at startup.
Do you suggest any changes? I think I won't change anything unless it bogs
down again.
I am very happy that OO.o is loading faster, even if I don't understand
it.
If someone can help me get the <expletive expurgated> spelling checker to
work again I'll be even happier. But since have the LanguageTool
installed, I imagine that's a separate post, to Lingucomponent ...
With Warmest Regards
