Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 47787
Reformatting of document takes a long time
Last modified: 2013-08-07 14:38:26 UTC
This document was a Microsoft Office 2000.doc. I've loaded it and saved with OOo format with m93. Then I closed Writer, re-opened and loaded. To reproduce the frozen: 1) Open the document 2) View -> Web layout 3) Edit -> Find and replace, search for "ca' revis" 4) cose the "Find and replace" dialog 5) in front of the writing "Ca' Revis" insert a paragraph (=press Enter) the program frozens
Created attachment 25237 [details] Native Writer file (from MWord) to reproduce the error of issue 47787
Confirming the Issue.
This seems to be fixed in 680m95 (will be released soon). Writer will need about 5 secs to reformat, but then it will be possible to work again.
Closed.
I can confirm that with m95 it's fixed, but I think there still is something odd with it. The structure of the file is simple: a tite an a table and a page break (btw, how can I see this break? M$ Word shows it). (times are taken on my Athlon 1700 pc, 512MB ram, Win2k) If I insert a paragraph (Enter) before the first table title ("Villa Alcyone") it takes 1-2 seconds. This sounds good since, from a user point of view, all the sequent tables have to be moved down one line (but I don't know internal structure). But if I insert a paragraph before the "Majon 29" title, it takes 9 seconds, but that table is around the half file lenght position! If you go to the very bottom table, that empty titled "Condominio", and you insert a paragraph, it's almost immediate. If you then go torwards top of 3 tables, ("Casa Verocai") it takes 3 seconds. If you go up 3 more ("Villa Sorapis") it's 5-6 seconds And the "Ca' Revis" table is 9-10 seconds... So my point is that in every position it should be as fast as when you enter the paragraph at the top of the file (1-2 seconds), or much faster. A slowlness of 9-10 seconds has no explainations, except some code problems, OMHO. Let me know ;)
MRU->FME: can you please have a look, if there could be some improvement on the performance. Thanks!
Just tested with Dev300_m4, Debian GNU/Linux 64, and the problem is still present. Inserting a paragraph at the top as almost imediate, in that position takes 5. There should be something bad or in the imported document, or in Writer behaviour
