OOcalc plotting performance issue

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



I'm having some pretty severe performance problems with OpenOffice
Calc.

Here's the environment:

Intel 2.67 GHz P4 (yes it's underpowered, but see below)
NVidia 7600 GS over-clocked with 260.19.36 binary driver
1.5 GB memory
Fedora 14 latest patches

The applications:

OpenOffice Calc 3.3.0-20.2
Gnumeric 1.10.12-1
KSpread 2.2.2-4
Sun JRE 1.6.0_22 (instead of 1.6.0_23 to work around tmpdir bug)

The plot:

Size: 8700 points
Plot: XY scatter, points and lines, no smoothing

The problem:

Increasing the horizontal size of the graph takes approximately 10
minutes. During this time the CPU is at 100% and the mouse cursor
remains as a double-headed arrow, preventing interaction with the
rest of the desktop. This occurs regardless of windowing system (KDE,
Gnome, WindowManager).

Decreasing the horizontal size works reasonably well (about 10
seconds).

A bit more detail:

Fedora 14
OO 3 / JRE 1.6.0_22 vertical increase size -    10 seconds
                    horizontal increase size - 600 seconds
gnumeric            vertical increase size -     2 seconds
                    horizontal increase size -   6 seconds
kspread             segmentation fault creating graph

XP/Professional (same hardware)
00 3 / JRE 1.6.0_23 vertical increase size -     5 seconds
                    horizontal increase size -  30 seconds
Excel 2000          vertical increase size -     1 second
                    horizontal increase size -   2 seconds

Are other people experiencing similar relative performance issues? If
this is not an artifact, where should it be reported?

Yes, I can use some Perl scripts and gnuplot as workarounds.

. . . . just my two cents
