Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 85725
Too slow to manage a document of 86 pages
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:44:35 UTC
I have never seen this with OOo ! In a Writer document, some operations take a really long time, e.g.: - 5 min to change the style of a bullet point list - 30 min to delete the text of 2/3 of the document ... I don't know whether the problem is OOo or in my document: I use OOo 2.3.1 with an ODT document which was a DOC document where people with MS Word and OOo have been working on ! The document contains also many pictures (screen shots). I will not post the document here as it is confidential, but I am willing to post it to some developers (as long as we agreee on confientiality). I hope there will be an easy solution to this problem. Cheers, L.
You can send your document to me (es at openoffice.org) and a copy to mru at openoffice.org. We are both SUN employees and bound by contract to keep your documents confidential. Please refer to the issue number in the subject line of your e-mail! Thank you!
@OD: Please have a look. I forwarded you the document.
I have noticed that if I convert the document to WinWord and open the .doc document I don't have all these problems ! I don't have the style MesPoints any more but I can move my chaters around (copy/paste or using the navigator), without waiting for hours (literraly) for the prompt. I hope this helps.
First investigation reveals that several numbering/bullet list styles have consecutive numbering, which cause the performance problems. Further investigation needed.
Due to limited resources re-target to OOo 3.x
Yep, is the same problem as issue 74748. Will be fixed in OO 3.0 (maybe beta 2). *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 74748 ***
