OK, I think I've set it up to be reproducible:

1. open two attached documents in libreoffice (both .docx)
2. save as .odt
3. wait and watch memory being taken up (creeps up steadily on my x220 with 8GB
ram)

To fix the problem, I just copied all of the text from each file into a new
.odt (instead of saving it as an .odt straight from .docx format). So for me,
the problem is solved. But it might be helpful for other users who are starting
with MSO and moving to ODT to know how to solve this problem.

Let me know if you need other information, and thanks.
