I remember the topic. I found when you have a background task like SETI@home, Folding@home, or the distributed.net client Open Office is next to unusable. I have good news the latest release candidate of Open Office 1.1 doesn't have have that problem on my PC. I would grab the newest Open Office release candidate if you have a fast enough connection. Lots of other fixes, worth the time to get. On Friday 25 July 2003 02:10 am, Fred M. Sloniker wrote:
I remember someone posting to the mailing list a while back about a problem with OpenOffice being really sluggish, something about a kernel conflict. I didn't think much of it at the time, as I wasn't having trouble with OpenOffice... but I've just experienced the second period of extreme lag with the program. (The first I cleared up with a reboot, but that's the Windows Way of solving problems...) Anybody remember this problem and know a solution?
