It opens instantly for me, but I have not the 'B Nazarain' font installed.

Maybe an only Linux issue.

"Maybe an only Linux issue."
I don`t know maybe. but I guess Opensuse would specially care of their default bundled softwares, specially when they even made their own splash logo for it.
I don`t think that`s because of the font, since I used it on other documents and this not happens in older versions of Writer.
I`m using the appimage release of 24.8 for now til I see if it`s fixed.

I see if windows has this problem too, when I have the time.

I did end up having to wait, however it wasn't for long. It was around 30 seconds.

Okay,
I tested on Windows: it ran OK
On Fedora live with the appimage release of LO (in VM): OK
Deleted the config folder of LO in my main Thumbleweed: Fixed

a bit strange, because older versions of LO was working fine. maybe some change in 25.2 made the application incompatible with some settings from older versions. (but I don`t know why it was only affecting long Documents. anyway it fixed now.)
