<pre>it's a minefiled ...
@davidpbrown is commenting about miscalculations ...
resulting in wrong values displayed ...
not pinpointing, no sample, may be diferent issues, thus somewhat unclear, but
i think he's right,
from my experience:
- size of sheet likely is not causing issues, but 'helps' bugs and errors
evolving unnoticed since harder to spot,
- large sheets become slow, one can switch off autocalculate [menu - data -
calculate - autocalculate] - be careful you have no sign that it's off, i
haven't seen calc switching this off by itself,
- there have been plenty and are still at least 3 ways to produce cells
'decoupled' from autocalculate, see bugs <a class="bz_bug_link

such things spreaded into a sheet is ... evil and hard to spot, see <a class="bz_bug_link

bz_status_ASSIGNED "
title="ASSIGNED - Wrong calculation after copy/paste of a formula"
href="show_bug.cgi?id=132451">tdf#132451</a> stepped
in between 6.1.6.3 and 6.2.0
- i recently had a quite strange experience with vlookup, it suddenly pulled
values from wrong rows in many similar tables (one row lower than it should
have been), i'm not finished assigning it, i have / had
1 - older LO versions installed in parallel for research,
2 - M$S office 2010 installed in parallel for comparison,
3 - added several - ~20 - additional 'if-nested' vlookup functions in addition
to the ~60 already existing in the sheet,
i'm still trying to see if i can narrow it down, the error affected some but
not all calculations / sheets, it was persistent, but disappeared when i tried
to 'reduce' the sheet to provide a sample,
- 'suggests "1048575 of 1048575 records found"' - vague remembering having seen
similar, @david: what happens if you delete the rows below instead of their
content? (don't worry, calc will give you new ones),
thus ... it's likely that @david is right with his observations, but doesn't
help identifying the issue(s),
how to proceed?</pre>
