Here it is an example, but on my machines, it can be reproduced by adding any type of animation...
Just open the document , each time your launch the slides (F5) and play the animation (click), the CPU usage of soffice.bin increase. After a certain number of repetitions, the CPU usage can easily reach 100%. But even before, Impress become quickly unusable , and animations becomes very slow. Closing only the document will put back the CPU to a normal state, but if you reopen any other document and run the slide show, the CPU usage will get back to the state before closing the first document. Here is an example of the evolution of the CPU usage: Open the document CPU 0% [Run slides (F5) , play animation (click) and close slides show ] x 10 CPU ~10% [Run slides (F5) , play animation (click) and close slides show ] x 10 CPU ~40% ... Close the document (not ooo) CPU 0% Open the document CPU ~30% [Run slides (F5) , play animation (click) and close slides show ] x 1 CPU ~40% The only way is to close OpenOffice totally , and not using anymore animations ... ** Attachment added: "test.odp" http://launchpadlibrarian.net/12553278/test.odp -- Impress -effects cumulatively eat CPU https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/160173 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
