3 seconds takes LibreOffice Write to load on my "old" ThinkPad P50.
- approxim8ion 6y agoFirst load or was it already loaded in your session? Took 21 seconds on my 6 year old laptop with an i3 and 8GB of RAM. No SSD though, just a 5400rpm HDD. The second load was about 4 seconds though.
- bayindirh 6y agoEven with a good SSD and processor, LibreOffice takes a lot of time for the first fire. Then, as long as it's in the memory, you can fire it relatively instantly but, it's not "3 seconds flat".
- eptcyka 6y agoYMMV,for me it starts up instantly.
- bscphil 6y agoYeah, I have it on an SSD and it took six seconds to load. (And I have run it before since the last reboot, but it was closed and probably purged from memory since then.) Kinda reminds me, back in the day Microsoft would add a startup service that would preload Internet Explorer and Word (I think those two) into memory, because they started so slowly by default. Trying to get a leg up on the competition, I suppose, since obviously Firefox or what have you wasn't pulling similar tricks. I'd disable stuff like that in msconfig to get a faster boot time, but was always shocked by how slow Word would load after that.
