<pre>Options-LibreOffice-Memory page has some settings that control Image and OLE
caches:
[Image Cache]
Use for LibreOffice: X MB 190
Memory per object: X MB 12
Remove from memory after: XX:XX hh:mm 10
[Cache for Inserted Objects]
Number of objects: N 20
Their corresponding settings are
/org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/GraphibManager/TotalCacheSize
/org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/GraphibManager/ObjectCacheSize
/org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/GraphibManager/ObjectReleaseTime
/org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/DrawingEngine/OLE_Objects
and this setting seems to depend on latter:
/org.openoffice.Office.Common/Cache/Writer/OLE_Objects
The settings control caches, i.e. how long do *unused* graphic objects stay in
memory to speed up their reuse if need arises, and how much of them are kept.
These settings don't control other memory-related aspects of LO; and they
generally are unrelated to performance issues in LO. But it's common
misconception among users that in case of performance problems in LO, this page
settings needs to be tweaked to try to fix those problems. There are plenty of
such advises in all user support forums.
My suggestion is to remove this settings page altogether, and only allow
changing the settings using Expert Configuration dialog.</pre>
