Libreoffice 3.4.0-3.4.3 crashes on complex documents containing a lot of pivot tables created in previous versions of Libreoffice or Openoffice.org. It makes impossible use of libreoffice 3.4 branch for complex calculations and data analysis using pivot tables. During opening files consumption of CPU reaches 100% until Libreoffice crashes. Some files are opened by Librefoffice, but chashes during refresh operation. In Libroffice 3.3 and 2.4 the same files doesn't cause any visible fluctuations of CPU consumption during opening or refreshing pivot tables. This bug makes recent versions of Lidreoffice Calc completely useless. I can provide sample file to developers willing to work on this regression, however I don't want to make it public. The bug is relevant to https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=38224
@andis.lazdins@gmail.com Please contribute information concerning the OS you used for your tests! Does LibO really crash (disappear) or does in only stop responding? You can send the confidential document to me by mail, I will tell you my results and forward it with my results to Kohei Yoshida

[Reproducible] with "LibreOffice 3.4.3 RC2 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO340m1 (Build:302)]" and also with Server installation of Master "LibO-dev 3.5.0 – WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) English UI [(Build ID: 3b32204-7f92fce-2ba0a9f)]". Crash after "Adapt Row Hight" 20% No problem with "LibreOffice Portable 3.3.3 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [OOO330m19 (Build:301 Tag 3.3.3.1)]". @reporter: I deleted sheet 3 with LibO 3.3.3, but New document still crashes. Are there Pivot Tables I did not find?

@andis.lazdins@gmail.com Can you try to reduce the sample a little? what if the hidden PT is the reason?
(In reply to comment #5) > @andis.lazdins@gmail.com > Can you try to reduce the sample a little? what if the hidden PT is the reason? Fantastic!!! As soon as I unhide the hidden sheet in sample document, libreoffice 3.4.3 could open the document; however it stopped responding in a few seconds and crashed with 100% utilization of CPU. After removing all pivot tables file opened much faster, but it stopped responding on adapt row height in a few seconds and crashed afterwards with the same 100% CPU utilization. After I removed spreadsheet containing complex array formulas in the file with previously removed pivot tables opened normally. It seems that the problem is not in pivot table problem (I'm sorry to developers), but formula recalculation problem. Unfortunately I don't have any file with lot of pivot tables based directly on raw data. However, rather big spreadsheet (10 MB) with single pivot table opened very well with libreoffice 3.4.3. You can use the same sample file to identify reason of crashes, however, there is no need to concentrate on pivot tables, at least for this reason, anymore.

Calc in LibreOffice 3.4.4 still crashes during opening or during recalculation of complex spreadsheets with many array formulas. Those files can be easily opened by by LibreOffice 3.3.X and 2.4.X. Am I the only one doing complex calculations in LibreOffice?
When running from terminal the error message after the program crash is terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc' what(): std::bad_alloc Aborted
Rainer, I need access to the file to be able to work on this bug.
I sent document to developer Kohei Yoshida. Current results with the document: 3.3.3 opens it without problems, "LibreOffice 3.4.4 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) German UI [Build ID: OOO340m1 (Build:402)]" needs some time with maximum CPU load for calculation of row heights, then it ends with "read error". No longer a problem with Server Installation of "LibreOffice 3.5.0 - WIN7 Home Premium (64bit) English UI [Build ID: 35c8573-95bcc5e-4c1bcb] Win-x86@6-fast pull time 2011-12-09 12:44:50", at least for WIN the problem vanished.
I can confirm that problematic files can be opened in LibreOffice 3.5 beta on Ubuntu 11.10. It seems that this very serious (for me at least) problem will be solved in next version :)
Glad to hear that. I will mark this fixed for 3.5.
The problem persist also in LibreOffice 3.4.6 RC2. It seems that there are no idea to solve it in 3.4 branch at all.
