Description Jan Janikovic 2014-12-02 14:28:03 UTC 
These two documents cause the LibreOffice to crash:
- Trying to open the DA 40 semestrálka.doc returns the following error:
"Read-Error. This is not a WinWord97 file."
- Trying to open the DA 40 semestrálka.docx returns the following error:
"osl::Thread::create failed"

If someone is interested to work on this issue, please contact me to get the files. Their size is over 100 MB, thus I cannot attach them here.

The *.docx file was created by saving from the *.doc file in MS Word 2010
If it helps, the Memory settings in the Options are following:
Undo
Number of steps: 100

Graphics cache
Use for LibreOffice 256 MB 
Memory per object 64 MB
Remove from memory after 00:10 hh:mm

tested under Win8.1 64bit using LibO 4.3.4.1 and 

I confirm bug with file "DA 40 semestrálka.doc"
I don't confirm bug with "DA 40 semestrálka.docx" file which I can open with no issues.

anyway status NEW because of bug present with the .doc version

I confirm the slow loading in 4.4.x

I opened a new bug report about this:
Bug 92682 - FILEOPEN: very slow loading of large .doc (124 MB)

Well i actually had the crash with the docx file with v4.4.5.1 under windows 7. But when i cleared my profile (rough guess) it didn't crash anymore with this file.
