Description Aron Budea 2016-12-01 21:54:47 UTC
This is a new bug in 5.2.4.1 that only affects Writer. Only tested in Windows 7, (un)confirmation in Linux needed.

Start Writer, open Tools menu. It takes a few seconds to open for the first time.
Other menus come up instantly. Occurs both with default and OpenGL rendering.

Comment 3 Aron Budea 2016-12-06 00:17:42 UTC
As it turns out, this isn't a new issue at all, but only occurs if a lot of dictionary extensions are installed. The reason why I could reproduce in some versions and not others is that the SI-GUI installed pre-release/release versions had all dictionaries, while master builds and normally installed versions didn't (like 5.3beta1 was in my case).

Still a regression, but from 5.1, and from the commit below. Adding Cc: to Yousuf Philips.
Not sure which part of the commit causes the performance issue.

Comment 4 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2016-12-08 18:22:29 UTC
No clue Aron what could be the cause, but with my patch i moved a few entries from submenus into the main Tools menu, so try testing deleting those entries below.

As it doesnt happen in master and 5.3 (fresh), is there something that needs to be fixed?

It still happens, see the first paragraph in comment 3 for details.
I checked a bit, and it seems Thesaurus is causing the stall (thanks for the hint), but I didn't have the time to further experiment with it. What I did, I tried earlier versions, and the stall happened when I entered that particular submenu.

Process Monitor Output LO5400

It's seems to be caused by cycling through lots of directory's (over and over again). I have added a process monitor output when clicking on Menu Tools in Writer immediately after launch.

It's nearly the same as bug 104637 (it actually still exists) and has similarity's with bug 104582

Comment 11 Yousuf Philips (jay) (retired) 2017-02-04 11:21:13 UTC
@Aron: As the thesaurus is available in a submenu prior to 5.1, i would check earlier versions to see if the same problem happens when opening the Tools > Language submenu, as this problem is likely inherited from OOo.

@Maxim, @Michael: Any thoughts?

1. Comment 15 is obsolete: A full process Monitor output is already attached
2. There seem to be two issues combined here: 
2.a disk queries related to python (bug 108698 (added as duplicate to this one)
2.b disk queries related to louno.ini (bug 108645) -> probably the main cause of the lag
Comment 17 Aron Budea 2017-09-11 02:52:24 UTC
This seems to be related to bug 108468, as both deal with some kind of language component initialization, though not entirely the same:
- if first the user types, and then opens Tools menu, LO only stalls once,
- if first the user opens Tools menu, and then types, LO stalls both times.

I'd assume preloading the language components would solve this issue as well.

Quote from Tor Lillqvist; Patch Set 6:
The Right Way to fix the problem would of course be to re-work the code path that is taking so long; why does the code insist on initialising (in some sense) stuff for languages not even used at the moment? Adding debugging printout in various places one sees that LngSvcMgr::getAvailableServices() is called for all potential language/locale combinations. Why?  And org.libreoffice.comp.pyuno.Lightproof.pt_BR, org.libreoffice.comp.pyuno.Lightproof.ru_RU, etc even if no document with text in Brazi.ian Portuguese or Rssian os nowhere open. Etc. My God, it's full of crap.
Comment 22 How can I remove my account? 2018-06-20 15:38:34 UTC
I have been looking at the delay after typing the first character in Writer in a LO session. Seeing this requires having a LO built with --with-myspell-dicts (for typical developers, no idea what it requires for people using end-user packages).

It is the LightProof Python code that causes most of the slowness.

Here is the "Heaviest Stack Trace" from the TimeProfiler tool in Intruments on macOS, slightly edited. The number after the dylib name is in milliseconds. One can see that the first call to pyuno::Adapter::invoke() takes about 300 ms. (And some temporary SAL_DEBUG output confirms.)

Corresponding SAL_DEBUG output, not from the exact same run, so the timing is a bit different, here the interesting bit takes over half a second, probably because I had a build ongoing at the same time:

The Lightproof.py line and the following lines "== 2" etc are from instdir/LibreOffice.app/Contents/Resources/extensions/dict-pt-BR/Lightproof.py, where I added some pyuno.sal_debug() calls (an upcoming enhancement, soon in gerrit):

> # Lightproof grammar checker for LibreOffice and OpenOffice.org

> 

I.e. it is clear that the thing that takes lots of time is loading the lightproof_impl_pt_BR Python module. Even if what is done at this stage is just getting a list of locales that we have proofreaders for. The lightproof_impl_pt_BR module is *huge* (it has the actual data for pt-BR for Lightproof). And note that there isn't even any document with text in pt-BR open in LibreOffice... So it is totally unnecessary to waste CPU time on loading that data. The Lightproof code needs to be reorganised so that the heavy data modules are loaded only when actually needed.
Comment 24 Telesto 2018-06-20 16:08:08 UTC
@Tor Lillqvist
Is this related to Lightproof.py or is there maybe some issue with Python itself? DrMemory (on windows) reported quite some UNADDRESSABLE ACCESS beyond heap bounds errors for python35.dll (bug 108270 comment 7)
Comment 25 László Németh 2018-06-20 17:18:07 UTC
Lightproof uses lazy loading by using __import__ for the compiled rules, but not for the extra Python codes defined in [code] parts of the grammar rule file.
In fact, that I was intended for small extra functions, not a full Python grammar checker, so I didn't optimize it. The good news, that the smaller file is the problem here: :)

Thanks for your report and research. I will check it.

Suggested fix in https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/56176/

But if you Lászlo are working on a better fix, even better.

I am not a Python programmer and it probably shows;)

Tor, you are a better Python programmer, than me. :)

Many thanks for solving this issue! I will port your solution to the Lightproof framework (https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/lightproof/), too.

I must confess I have no idea how to check whether the pt-BR Lightproof works any longer after my change... Anybody? The lightproof_impl_pt_BR.py and lightproof_pt_BR.py files are rather hard to understand.

(I did try an equivalent change to the en Lightproof.py and that didn't break it. But it would be nice to be able to double-check for pt-BR.)

It seems, a lower case sentence starting word, ie. "uno" will be underlined by the pt-BR grammar checker. I started to check, there is a problem with the patch yet. I will fix tomorrow, if it's ok:

Python exception: <class 'AttributeError'>: module 'lightproof_impl_pt_BR' has no attribute 'SMGR', traceback follows
  File "/home/laci/libreoffice/instdir/share/extensions/dict-pt-BR/Lightproof.py", line 67, in doProofreading
    if lightproof_impl_pt_BR.SMGR == None:

Ah! Yes, I forgot that thing. I guess in lightproof_impl_pt_BR.py , there needs to be:

>  calcfunc = None
> 
> +SMGR = None
>  
>  # check settings

That's what I did when I first experimented with the smaller lightproof for en, but I forgot with pt_BR.

I also now see that in pt_BR/Lightproof.py I accidentally use  lightproof_impl_en.SMGR.createInstanceWithContext("com.sun.star.linguistic2.SpellChecker", currentContext) ...

Will fix.

https://gerrit.libreoffice.org/#/c/56217/ should fix it.

I've checked it, it did. Thanks, Tor!

Could somebody please check if the fix to the pt-BR Lightproof helped also for the thing the initial comment actually is about?

Aron, do you think this is fixed now?

Comment 37 Aron Budea 2018-07-20 12:59:40 UTC
I checked with 6.1.0.1, and the Tools menu opens a lot quicker, albeit still not instantly (for the first time) like the other menus.

I'd say that's fine, but to be sure, I'll check again with 6.1.0.2, and also with dictionaries copied to a daily build (I don't have a complete master build including dictionaries, but all relevant dictionary changes have been cherry-picked to 6.1, anyway).

Thanks for the fixes, Tor!

Comment 38 Aron Budea 2018-07-20 23:27:51 UTC
And the missing piece is this commit, also by Tor:
https://cgit.freedesktop.org/libreoffice/core/commit/?id=f1d9aca4bf596c0a3be44483b1d60867f12683ec

Tor, would it be possible to get this into libreoffice-6-1 and libreoffice-6-1-0?
Comment 39 How can I remove my account? 2018-07-23 07:00:55 UTC
Is the commit you refer to important enough to get into 6.1? I thought only clear bug fixes were supposed to be cherry-picked. That commit is not a such.
Comment 40 Michael Meeks 2018-07-23 13:47:11 UTC
Depends how big and risky it is I guess.
