On an large array of rows and columns when adding or changing rows or columns there is an extreme slow down the Writer program stops goes dark and freezes for a long time before preforming the task. I use complex Writer tables a lot and this type of thing is happening a lot, maybe 5-10 time a session and extends my work time into the hours. Version 4 of LibraOffice did NOT have this problem at all on ubuntu 14.04 LTS. I am using ubuntu 16.04 LTS on a Dell Pavilion P6247 bundle: AMD Athlon II x4 Processor x4, Graphics:Gallium 0.4 on NVAA: 64-bit, 500Gb HD.

On a large array of rows and columns when adding or changing rows or columns there is an extreme slow down the Writer program. It stops goes dark and freezes for a long time before preforming the task. This sometimes is minutes. I use complex Writer tables a lot and this happens every time there is a need to add a row. This problem did not occur on the older version 4 of LibraOffice running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS. It is still a problem with the current system details listed below. A) Current System Details Computer: Dell Pavilion P6747 which has an AMD Athlon II x4, Graphics: Gallium 0.4 on NVAA: 64-bit, 2Tb HD, 7.5Gb memory, gnome 3.28.2 Operating System: Ubuntu 18.04.2 Libre Office version 6.0.7.3 B) Reproduction Steps Using an Inserted Table in a four pages ledger with various size row (40-60 per page) and multi columns (10-20) with some row and column shading LibreOffice becomes slow at adding rows or columns. The ledge was built from four or so lines with 24 columns. It was simple using the “add line,” “split cell,” and “merge cell” tools, but time consuming. I will add an example if I can attach a LibreOffice Writer document. C) Test cases Every time I try to add a row and have to wait forever for all writer documents to unfreeze. This can be a few minutes. D) Attached ledger EXAMPLE.odt
The latest LibreOffice for Ubuntu 18.04.2 LTS is this version 6.0.7.3 using the package manager to update. I did discover a "Broken Package System" and fixed it. Afterward the problem with LibreOffice has become less noticeable. I'll work with it for a while to stress test it in the real world. I will set the status at a tentative RESOLVED.
