  • “Under Ubuntu, I found that OO Writer opened in three seconds, and in Fedora it opened in less than six seconds. Previously, it took 30 and 26 seconds”

• How is it achieved ?!

• • • Increase the graphics cache ram, I upped mine to 64 for "Use for OO.org" and 5 for "memory per object"
    • Loading times will increase[sic.] dramatically. (20 seconds to 7 seconds on one computer I've used)"
  • “very effective change. Having run knoppix from the cd drive for over a year on a few computers, this increase in memory setting cuts anywhere from 30 seconds to more than several minutes”
