Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 8398
App hangs on Excel file load with many images
Last modified: 2013-08-07 15:14:58 UTC
(Tested on 1.0.1 and dev preview 643; tested on Win2000, XP, and NT) Loading a file with many (hundreds and hundreds) little square images (a map) hangs the spreadsheet app with 100% CPU load. Tried waiting an hour to see if it came back but it didn't. Tried to produce a small test case file but found that Excel deleted the cells not the images, which all 'floated' in to of each other. In the end thought I'd just send the whole file, as although large it's very simple having no calculations etc.

I take it
The 3700 images are the reason of the freeze. Already fixed in the next 643 build. It takes 50 seconds on my machine no, and this time is really required to convert the drawing objects.
