Description rhf-admin 2020-12-12 06:02:26 UTC
Description:
Libre Office consumed all your RAM when working with tables

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open any CSV-file
2.Open any ODF-file
3.Select in CSV-file several columns (the entire columns, using the top row of the sheet. It is important to select the columns as a whole, and not a certain range).
4. Copy selected columns from CSV to ODF with Ctrl+C & Ctrl+V
5. Save the ODF and run the htop utility to see what happens next
6. Close all Libre Office documents. At this point, RAM consumption will increase dramatically by 2-3 GB, after which, after about a minute or two, the memory will begin to rapidly decrease until it runs out completely.

Actual Results:
Libre Office has consumed all of your RAM

Expected Results:
Free RAM & close application


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

5.3 is an old version and is EOL like all 5.X and all 6.X.
Please give a try to 7.0.3.
