When I make a selection to the clipboard, one core of my cpu and even my harddisc(!) is under full load. This is always reproduceable on my system. libreoffice does _not_ freeze and I can stop this immediately by making another clipboard selection anywhere on the system. This affects writer, calc and impress. Calc and Impress is affacted only when I select a cell respective an object. It is not affected by "normal" text selection e.g. when double clicking in a cell/object. I am using Libreoffice 4.1.0.4 from ubuntu ppa now, but the previous version 3.5.4-0ubuntu1.1 had the same issue. Steps to reproduce: 1) Open Writer 2) Write a few characters 3) Select the characters an press ctrl+c My system: Kubuntu 12.04.2 LTS Thanks for your help.
I do not remember I never had such problem with the generic Linux version downloaded from LibreOffice website. I guess it is an Ubuntu bug, but could you try the generic Linux version to confirm this? Best regards. JBF
Hi Kai M, Current stable release is now 4.1.3, did you try it ? Best regards. JBF
Sorry, for my late reply. I didn't get any notices via mail. I installed the debian Packages from LO Website. Version now is 4.1.3.2. Sadly, the problem stays the same.
Ok, will try something else: Are you using some clipboard manager, such a software which allows to manage multiple clipboards? If it is the case, you should try with this software deactivated. Best regards. JBF
Hello Jean-Baptiste, thanks for your help. KDE is shipped with the clipboard manager "Klipper". Shutting it down didn't help.
Ok, another try: do you use some accessibility technology? Best regards. JBF
I don't use accessibility technology. It is the soffice.bin process that is causing the high load. The IO Write is up to 87K/s. Apparently no IO Read. I have been watching it more than 15 minutes writing to the disk, but I don't know what the process is writing.
I got a new Info about this. This issue is related to Netbeans IDE (http://netbeans.org/). I use the Netbeans PHP version 7.3. When shutting down Netbeans, the problem with LO causing high load is gone. Immediately after starting Netbeans again, the high load returns, if I got something from Libre Office in the Clipboard. As a developer, my Netbeans is always open. It is really critical to me. Kai
Thank you for this informations. No other question for the moment. Set status back to unconfirmed until independent confirmation. Best regards. JBF

(In reply to comment #10) > what about new 4.2.5.2 release? is issue still there. > set status to NEEDINFO I tried version 4.2.5.2 and the 4.3 prerelease. The issue is still there. Lately I went over to Kubuntu 14.04 on a SSD. I do not have this issue there.
(In reply to comment #11) [...] > Lately I went over to Kubuntu 14.04 on a SSD. I do not have this issue there. Ok, thank you for the information. Closing as NotOurBug because the fix is external to LibreOffice (upgrading the distro & KDE). Feel free to reopen if the problem comes back for you. Best regards. JBF
