I would suspect the there isn't one problem with it on Windows and another with
it on Linux but that the crash versus the extreme slowness is due to how the
operating systems handle the problem.  With Linux it would seem that the
processor is bogged down until it gets through whatever is happening but
Windows tries to act like everything is OK until it just can't anymore.

I also suspect that the problem may be due to the new way of dealing with
headers & footers since that was such a major change between version 3.4.6 &
3.5.  I was doing some experimentation with different size files I would guess
that there is some loop that is being processed for the whole document whenever
something is selected or changed.  It seems that as the file gets progressively
larger the processing keeps getting slower in proportion to the size.  

It may also have something to do with the complexity of the document.  I have
documents that have far less pages but have many paragraph and character style
changes along with many footnotes which do not work with version 3.5 or
greater.  I hope this gets fixed soon because I am unable to upgrade until it
does or will need to go to OpenOffice 4 whenever that is released.
