The Linux version of OpenOffice.org 1.9.95 pegs the cpu while 
idle. See the bug report at

 http://www.openoffice.org/issues/show_bug.cgi?id=47944. As a result, I

I just had an equivalent problem in Windows XP. When I 
stress the writer application by opening a web page with 
Writer the system crawls and the Task Manager says that 
soffice.bin is using 95-99% of the CPU. 

I killed and removed 1.9.95. I'll continue to use 1.9.69.

I will wait for DSL (first week in May) to install Ubuntu 
and fetch the then current OpenOffice.org beta - if it is a
later version.
