            Bug ID: 137195
           Summary: LibreOffice Calc locks up during opening an existing
                    file.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 6.4.0.3 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Linux (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc

Description:
This is the first time that I have experienced this problem in ten years.
Today, I opened an existing spreadsheet file and it takes a very long time (two
to three minutes) to open. I receive an error message "LibreOffice Calc is not
responding". 
I am running the Ubuntu 20.04LTS operating system with the newest version of
LibreOffice suite on a HP Pavilion dv7 laptop with 16GB RAM and a 750GB SSD.
Today, I backed up my data files using the Ubuntu Backups utility app as I
always do every Thursday. Normally, files open with in 20 seconds. I have done
nothing different than I have done for the last ten years. I know my way around
LibreOffice Calc. I think that there was a recent update to my computer a
couple of days ago. I do not know if the problem is with Ubuntu or LibreOffice
updates. I never had this problem with Ubuntu 18.04LTS and the respective
LibreOffice suite. 

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Open file from File manager.
2.Takes 60 seconds to show spreadsheet, but cursor is locked up and doesn't
move.
3.After about 2 minutes, the cell location box will move with cursor arrows,
but will lockup after moving approximately 40 rows. Mouse pointer is
ineffective. Program is locked up and unresponsive. This time there is no Error
Message. 

Actual Results:
I use File manager to find an existing spreadsheet file. Open the file. File
will take an excessive time to open. After opening, various basic features on
the menu bar are inaccessible. Cursor will freeze in one location and will not
move. 

Expected Results:
I expect the spreadsheet to do basic functions 


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No



Additional Info:
This problem just happened to me today. Never happened before. I suspect a
recent software upgrade suggested by Ubuntu. Maybe a recent LibreOffice
upgrade. 
Tried to open an existing file again. File opened after 45 seconds. I can
change cell locations, but I cannot edit the contents of the cell. After 4 1/2
minutes, I receive the error message "LibreOffice Calc is not responding".
