Description: I think there may be a memory leak since Libre Office writer gets stuck on the spinning wheel (even if I am NOT trying to save) if a text file is open for a long time. If I quit Libre Office every two hours or so, I don't get that problem. Steps to Reproduce: 1. open a document in Writer on the MacBook Air w MacOS v13.2.1 and leave open for a few hours. 2. Gets progressively less responsive. Actual Results: It may be a minute or more that the wheel spins and I have not performed ANY user activity on the Mac. Expected Results: Libre Office was as responsive as expected after restartiing it. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: Restarting Libre Office fixes the problem.
Could you please paste the version info (from Help -> About Libreoffice)?
If you only tested version 7.3, please update to 7.4 or 7.5 as it won't see further bugfix versions. And let us know if you experience the same issue, with the info from LibreOffice > About LibreOffice pasted here, as Franklin mentioned. Thank you!
I am using a MacBook Air duo-core i5 with MacOS Ventura 13.2.1 and will update to thee latest stable release to see what happens then.
I have updated to 7.5 and the bug still persists.

Can you please test in Safe Mode to see if the issue persists? A screenshot from Activity Monitor showing the unusual memory use would be good too. Does it happen with specific files? If so, could you share an example? Thank you.
