Dieter,

Thanks for looking into this.  I did a quick test with document containing
about 100000 words and a bunch of figure and tables.  I loaded it into Writer
7.1.6.2.0+, which I think is the current Still version, on Fedora 34 amd64 in a
VirtualBox VM on an Windows host.  I also exported it to a docx file and loaded
it into Word 2013 running on the same host.  So the hardware was the same for
both programs, though the VM probably slowed Writer down a little.  

I set both Writer and Word to display in "Web" mode, scrolled to the bottom of
the document, and clicked the "+" zoom button.  Writer finished the task in 48
seconds and Word did it in about 3 seconds.  I believe Writer's poor
performance doing this type of reflow is the basic issue.

I realize that the above test still leaves some uncertainties.  I'll try to put
together a more apples-to-apples test (same OS and hardware).  But I don't
think it'll change the results enough to account for the >10x difference in
speed.
