Apache OpenOffice (AOO) Bugzilla – Issue 84949
OO crashes, obviously due to failed memory request
Last modified: 2008-01-03 09:25:13 UTC
I work usually with about 50 documents loaded, some very long. On weekends it happens, that I edit and frequently save documents for hours (without quiting OO). Sometimes OO completely crashes, but recovers the documents when OO is restarted. To me it looks very much, that this happens, because OO requests more RAM from Windows, but somewhat it fails. Does Windows (not OO) cause this crash ?!? Sometimes, when I recovered the documents and tried to continue with my work, very soon the crash happens again. Therefore, after recovering the documents, I always close them, quit OO, start OO again and reload all documents again. Than it might again take a few hours to happen again.
Improvement of general memory management in OOo is already tracked as issue 64721. *** This issue has been marked as a duplicate of 64721 ***
Closed. Another (very) similar issue regarding memory management is issue 81946.
