Description: keyboard input in an empty cell is slow. I start calc with a empty spread sheet. After navigating with arrows or mouse clicking on a cell, entering a value is slow. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Start Calc with an empty spreadsheet 2. Navigating to a cell with keyboard arrows or by mouse clicking 3. Begin to type anything Actual Results: It lags for more than 10 seconds. Everything (LibreOffice menu+rendering of cells) become unresponsive. Expected Results: I'd like to input my stuff in less than 2 seconds. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: Yes OpenGL enabled: Yes Additional Info: - On 7.1.7, strangely, I enter the first character, it lags for 2 to 3 seconds and I am able to input the rest. Afterwards, inputting other values is fast. - On 7.2.0 or 7.2.1, at the first attempt to enter something, it lags for more than 10 seconds. Everything become unresponsive. -I've tried to disable Skia, HW acceleration and OpenCL since I've a rather old GPU (+10 years).
mitigation: stick with 7.1
No repro.. This sounds like a profile corruption. Instructions how to reset the user profile can be found here: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/UserProfile
Setting to NEEDINFO for time being. Please report back if the issue has been solved.

NEW per dupe, which also had a Linux reproducer. As this only happens to a minority of users, it is hard to figure out what to try. You could try a daily build from https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html Windows users can grab Win-x86_64@tb77-TDF Troedel: you could install debug symbols for LibreOffice: https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Debug%20Symbol%20Packages Then, you could take a perf trace of the slow typing: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/Development/How_to_debug#Performance_debugging_.28perf.29 Instead of FlameGraph, you can also open the perf.data file in https://github.com/KDAB/hotspot and export a nice SVG.

I do not see a reason marking Bug 145217 as a duplicate of this one. Bug 145217 is related to the slowness at the time of start up (i.e. loading with an New / Empty document), while this one is about the slowness when type in a cell. They are different aspects. Remove accordingly.
I get exactly these symptoms with Win10 Pro and Calc v7.2.5 - new install, default settings, new user profile, all graphic output settings tested, safe mode tested. All tests done with a blank spreadsheet. Writer did not seem to be affected in any discernible way. Like Vincent, I also have an AMD system, but it is not very old - Ryzen 4650G APU (onboard graphics). I have the newest chipset and CPU/APU drivers from my motherboard's manufacturer (Gigabyte) dated Nov 2021. I also had to roll back to v7.1.8.1 in order to use Calc. Sorry, I'm just an end user. I can't really test anything for you.
(In reply to Neb from comment #8) This had been reported to be reproducible on both linux and windows. Please do not change the OS field to be win only.

This will stay like this until reproduced or bibisected (Comment 5). Aprat from that, test with master 7.4+ would be good to know if it's still a problem: https://dev-builds.libreoffice.org/daily/master/current.html
Thanks, Timur, for the follow-up! I've tested the latest nightly 2022-03-17 04:39:14 as you suggested, and it worked like a charm. There is no longer lag of 10 seconds on empty spreadsheet.
