same here.
"rpm -qa" was a *lot* faster before on this system.
this is with latest rawhide and ooo2 (only writer & core installed)
on an nforce2 2.1ghz athlon xp with 1gig ram.
time rpm -qa | grep openoffice.org2
openoffice.org2-writer-1.9.77-1
openoffice.org2-core-1.9.77-1
real 1m51.435s
user 0m0.802s
sys 0m0.062s
really strange.
