FWIW, I had a few documents open, but none being actively edited. One very long (about 300k words). I closed several of them (including the very long one). One that had changes needing saving, I simply saved. CPU load dropped to almost nothing. Sorry I didn't think to check load before saving, and after closing the long one. In the past I've found that closing LO and reopening files also fixes the issue.

To the extend that libreoffice calc is UNUSABLE for anything that has to do with spreadsheets. As far as I am concerned, this is a critical bug because it makes the program unusable, and often even the complete computer due to the high cpu load. - 'Every action' includes typing as much as one single letter in a cell. Or opening the file. - the file I am working on is only 1.1Mb in size - the same file used to open fine in previous versions of libreoffice. what I've tried so far - without any improvement in speed: - under tools, options, assigned memory 256 Mb for Libreoffice, and 20Mb per object (no solution) - automatic calculation has been turned off (no solution) - libreoffice-gnome and libreoffice-gtk have been removed (no solution) - purged and reinstalled libreoffice. (no solution) - created new user profile - also no resolve System: Ubuntu 16.04 LTS on AMD A8 with 8Gb ram and running on an SSD.
