I doubt I am running out of memory.  I have 8GB of RAM.  When I fill columns
A-F as described Win Task Manager reports soffice taking just over 1.6GB.  When
I try to copy the formula in G2 over the rest of the column, a core of the
processor remains dedicated to LO for some tens of seconds with the RAM used
increasing to just over 1.7GB before the crash occurs.  I can avoid a crash by
copying 100,000 rows at a time. I note there is a difference in memory
allocation if I enter =rand() in A1..F1 and then copy those cells to all other
rows (under 1.4GB), compared with creating a complete column A and then copying
the column to columns B-F.  I note you are running under Linux: I am running
under Win 7.
