Description: I have installed LibreOffice per DEB package under Linux Mint Mate 18.3 When I start LibreOffice by typing in the command line % libreoffice6.4 the main window opens, however: 1) The corresponding process soffice.bin runs constantly at 100% CPU load without any user interaction. PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 4483 me 20 0 1044684 128444 85696 R 100,0 3,4 0:21.22 soffice.bin The load returns to reasonable low values as soon as I terminate LibreOffice. 2) All menu titles (not the individual menu items) are grayed out. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Install LibreOffice_6.4.2_Linux_x86-64_deb.tar.gz 2. Run libreoffice6.4 This is enough. And I get the same results, when runnig LO in safe mode. Actual Results: PID USER PR NI VIRT RES SHR S %CPU %MEM TIME+ COMMAND 4483 me 20 0 1044684 128444 85696 R 100,0 3,4 0:21.22 soffice.bin Expected Results: Low CPU load as long as there is no user interaction Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Version: 6.4.2.2 Build ID: 4e471d8c02c9c90f512f7f9ead8875b57fcb1ec3 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: de-DE (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded I wonder, if this bug is somehow related to Bug 131444. Rationale: When I try to open even a small document, it takes quite a while because the CPU is so busy.

Maybe another important observation. When I clear all recent documents in the main LO window by clicking on Recent Files -> ClearRecent Documents The corresponding icons are removed and the CPU load drops to reasonable values. Regards Tom
Follow-up: Version: 6.4.3.2 Build ID: 747b5d0ebf89f41c860ec2a39efd7cb15b54f2d8 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: de-DE (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded In LO 6.4.3.2 the second issue has been fixed. The menu titles are no longer grayed out. Unfortunatly, the first issue is still present. The CPU is running at 100% load when libreoffice6.4 is started. Here are some more observations that may help to narrow down and fix the root cause. - The CPU load drops temporarily when the LO window is minimized (iconized) and jumps to 100% again when the LO window is restored. - The CPU load drops, when either the menu "Recent files" or the menu "Templates" is opened. It is not necessary to select any menu item in those menus. After opening any document and closing that document, the CPU load jumps to 100% again. Running LO in Safe Mode (w/ user profile reset) does not have any effect. The behavior is still the same. Regards Karim
The problem persists under LO 6.4.4.2 Version: 6.4.4.2 Build ID: 3d775be2011f3886db32dfd395a6a6d1ca2630ff CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: de-DE (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded Regards Tom
The problems persists as well under LO 6.4.5.2 Version: 6.4.5.2 Build ID: a726b36747cf2001e06b58ad5db1aa3a9a1872d6 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3; Locale: de-DE (en_US.UTF-8); UI-Language: en-US Calc: threaded Regards Tom
The problem persists also under LO 7.0.1.2-2. Version: 7.0.1.2 Build ID: 7cbcfc562f6eb6708b5ff7d7397325de9e764452 CPU threads: 4; OS: Linux 4.15; UI render: default; VCL: gtk3 Locale: en-US (en_US.UTF-8); UI: en-US Calc: threaded It seems as if LO is caught in an endless loop. Regards Tom
Duplicate of https://bugs.documentfoundation.org/show_bug.cgi?id=136512 which should be fixed latest in LO7.1. Regards Tom
