Hello, Paul :)
I had an issue with 300 kb files taking WAY to long to load/save.  I
noticed, using kpm (K process manager) that fam, htt and htt_server were
taking up way to much resources (I've had problems with these processes
monopolizing our system before)  When I killed fam and all processes
that began with htt*, my load times on OpenOffice went back to normal.
I am running Fedora Core 2, with all official updates installed.
This issue was a problem with all versions of OpenOffice that I have
installed.

I don't know if this has anything to do with your problem, but it fixed
mine :)
