Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 22409
KDE Klipper makes OpenOffice.org calc crash
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:15:02 UTC
Reported also as Bug http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=68098 When loading a large table in OOo Calc (40 columns x 21000 rows) and selecting all, klipper begins to pop up for action eventually and OOo starts to consume all available memory until it is killed by the kernel (Out of Memory logged in /var/log/messages). With no klipper running, OOo continues to run without consuming more memory than before. There seems to be some insane interaction between OOo & klipper. KDE Version is 3.1.1a, klipper Version is 0.9.5
Hi Peter, as discussed assigned to you. Frank
Yes, there seems to be a severe problem. I'll try to evaluate it.
You can avoid the office getting killed by creating a real big swap volume > 1GB ;-). But I guess that's not exactly what we want. The process consumes several hundred megabytes instead of 10 MB when klipper is inactive. Watch the klipper for a while. After some time you can see the clipboard view beginning to scroll as OOo memory grows. @Hennes: Hi, also reproduceble with several hundred pages of text in writer.
hro@pl: Please evaluate wether this is really a problem in OOo.
This problem does not seem to occur with KDE3.2 and a SRC680m26 build. Can you please verify that the problem still exists with the latest OOo build ?
still cannot reproduce this
@klausmuth: Does it still occur or do you have any other information for us?
I think we can close this issue, with KDE 3.1.4 & OOo 1.1.3 the problem vanished. Keep on Your good work!
That's good news -> closing
