[K12OSN] 8 Minutes to Open Open Office 2

[Edward Holcroft]

While I don't have a solution, I just want to confirm the same  
problem on ten of our 4.4.1 servers with a range of motherboards and  
NICs. These are all very simple "K12LTSP only" environments, no Samba  
shares, LDAP or anything like that. They all worked perfectly until  
upgraded. Unfortunately I sent a techie to upgrade a bunch of our  
sites, so that's what he did! Now they all have a problem. They're  
all systems with 20 workstations. Everything except OOo runs well.

In our case slow opening means about one to one and a half minutes,  
not eight - but still too much for any user to bear.

Will try the Sun Java option suggested by Dan as soon as I'm back in  
the office on Monday and give feedback to the list.
