Archive containing the Impress presentation, the exported PDF, and a screenshot of the exporting process.

The PDF exporting in the LibreOffice Impress is very slow when using Master Pages.

Steps to reproduce:
1. Create a new presentation and add some slides.
2. (optional) Export the presentation to PDF. (The process takes 2-3 seconds)
3. Select a Master Page to be used (on all slides).
4. Export the presentation to PDF.
Result: The export takes very long (30 sec -> 1-3 minutes, depending on the number of slides), the CPU usage is high (100% on one core)

Tested with 3.6.2.2 on Ubuntu 12.10 (x64) and 3.6.0.2 on Ubuntu 12.04 (x64). Tried with multiple Master Pages.

The resulting PDF document is also loading very slow (1-2 seconds each slide). Tested with the Document Viewer (Ubuntu 12.10) and with Foxit Reader (Windows 7).

The bug regarding slow PDF export should be fixed with Bug 59259. I don't think the fact the pdf loads slow is "fixed" too. Will try to investigate that.

Kind regards,
Joren

Indeed it seems like this is solved completely - export works quickly and I'm able to open the document with Adobe Reader quickly

Marking as WFM
