I have been using LibreOffice for three years on my Mac (retina MacBook Pro 13", ssd and all) and it usually takes more than 20 seconds to start. It has been happening ever since the change to the new GUI. Is it just me?
I've since installed and reinstalled macOS X from scratch at least two times, and it always takes lots of time to start.
- mrob 9y agoIt takes about 2 seconds on my 8 year old desktop (2.5GHz Phenom II, SSD) running Debian unstable. 20 seconds seems excessively slow for your hardware. I wonder how long it would take to load in a Linux VM? That could eliminate the possibility of the hardware being a problem.
- jventura 9y agoThanks for your suggestion. So I've tested on a Xubuntu 16.04 installation on VirtualBox, and it takes 3-4 seconds to boot LibreOffice Writer. It has something to do with macOS X...

- jventura 9y agoCould it be that it happens only on Macbooks? Maybe someone with a Macbook will still read this and answers..
