Good catch ! The irony ... :-) this Java bug was kindly fixed for us
indirectly via Andrew Haley to address the bad stack page left around when
we had run some java. That page was causing crashes in calc formula computation
in large sheets.
It seems we can't win at some stage here. Andrew - I wonder are other
people getting frustrated by performance here too ? it seems there is
some huge /proc/self/maps thrash as we enter/exit Java now on Linux.
ATB,
