Out of interest, I am testing the limits of Writer on largeish documents, edited as one unit (i.e., not as Master Documents).
In Writer I have a large test file, 1.6 MB, prepared some time ago on earlier versions of OO (certainly on OO 3.x, possibly on OO 2.x); this file has ~2,500 A5 pages and uses Heading 1 and Heading 2 styles; when I open it on my normal machines running Xubuntu 16.04.3 and make some change to the Table of Contents, OO 4 versions freeze, taking perhaps two hours to rebuild the ToC. If I open it and make the same change on an RPM based distro or Windows, the ToC is rebuilt in a few seconds (~10 secs). I have tested this on Xubuntu 16.04.3 (XFCE), Ubuntu 16.04.3 (Gnome), Debian 9.30 (XFCE), all showing the same freeze. On Centos 7 and Antergos 17.12 (RPM distros) ToC rebuilds in about 10 seconds. On Windows XP, ToC rebuild is about 10 seconds. I can email the test file to any member of the DEV list who is interested. The file itself is of no importance, except as a test example. I am grateful for the help of Kay Schenk in this matter. -- Rory O'Farrell <ofarr...@iol.ie> --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: dev-unsubscr...@openoffice.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: dev-h...@openoffice.apache.org
