Anyone finding LibreOffice slow on OSX? [closed]
I'm using LibreOffice Version: 5.0.1.2 on a late 2011 Macbook Pro with OSX version 10.9.5 and 8GB ram.
I have just downloaded LibreOffice and have experimented inserting images in Writer. This causes it to become painfully slow and the cpu load for LibreOffice jumps up to 80%. It is slow to scroll up and down, moving the cursor and typing text. Seems OK before adding images although not as responsive as OpenOffice. This is a shame because the way OpenOffice handles inserting and manipulating images is really awful and LibreOffice seems so much better. I don't have the latest OS or 16GB of ram but I would expect the Mac I do have would be adequate - it certainly is for the latest version of OpenOffice. Anyone else experiencing sluggish behaviour using LibreOffice on OSX?
Try upgrading to 5.1.0.3.
I've usede Lo for several years and after upgrading to ElCapitain it takes FOREVER to load the first time I open it, from then on it's fine till I reboot. I have OSX 10.11.6 and using LO 5.1.0.3.
I'll have to find something else because this is just too slow.
I have the same experience. Very slow to load first time, then it all seems pretty okay.
Same here. When you put drawings into your spread sheet it is overkill. Hard to use at all. The "pizza" is showing up all the time. iMac i7, 12 GB ram and SSD.
And I thought the water boiled faster. I'm using LO 5.4.3.2 on a MacBook Pro with macOS High Sierra 10.13.1, 2.6GHz i5 CPU with 8GB DDR3, and SSD. I find LO extremely sluggish compare to MS Office for MAC. It takes long very long 5 - 10+ seconds to open and close files in writer, calc, and impress making it not that impressing. Not to mention the delays and sluggish action while editing documents especially when switching between say calc and writer. Is there a way to speed this up?
