Can you please try with the latest Fresh version and see of things have improved? Please note that during the first run LO is doing some added configuration steps that can make the start up appear long. After that it should start up quicker. That's the figure we'd be interested in. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to libreoffice in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/592176 Title: A first document opens very slowly Status in LibreOffice Productivity Suite: Confirmed Status in “libreoffice” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in “openoffice.org” package in Ubuntu: Won't Fix Status in Baltix GNU/Linux: New Bug description: Binary package hint: openoffice.org It is very slow to open any first document in OOo. Either by double-clicking it, either by opening it after the opening of OOo, either a quite empty document just created with the same version of OOo, either a word processing document, either a spreadsheet... It takes about 10 seconds on a quite fast machine and about 30 seconds on a slower machine. Once a first document is opened, following documents open in less than one second. During the waiting time the machine does nothing visible : neither disk access, neither CPU activity. This problem seems to be new with Lucid and OOo 3.2 : I didn't notice it with Karmic and OOo 3.1. Lucid has been installed with fresh install on my both machines. I've tried to launch OOo with command line : openoffice.org essai.odt It's the same issue and nothing is written on standard output. I've also used strace (see attached file strace_OOo.txt) : the wait time occurs inside one of the last lines (just after "wait4(-1, " : wait4(-1, [{WIFEXITED(s) && WEXITSTATUS(s) == 0}], 0, NULL) = 7162 This issue has already been reported on french forums (OOo and Ubuntu-fr) but nobody seems to have the beginning of a solution : http://user.services.openoffice.org/fr/forum/viewtopic.php?f=13&t=22415&p=125249#p125249 http://forum.ubuntu-fr.org/viewtopic.php?pid=3539161#p3539161 Feel free to ask for more information !
