Installed Sun Java 1.5.0_03 on our office system and OOo is flying,  
opening in 5 seconds now. Strange thing is I never activated it in  
OOo as the primary Java VM to be used - that's still set to FSF Java.  
So just installing Sun Java seems to have made a massive speed  
difference. Anyone know why that could be?

Will verify on another server later today.
