OpenOffice uses sched_yield() in strange ways which causes it to get hopelessly starved on 2.6 kernels. I think RH have a fixed version, but I don't know if that has propagated into the upstream yet.
So... Don't worry about OpenOffice too much. Is the problem reproducible with other applications? - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
