I have got an strace, it is at
http://wiki.documentfoundation.org/File:Bug_35023_strace.log.7z

The approximate times for the operations I was carrying out are:
Start  19:05
Open test.odb
Go to tables pane 19:06:22 - 19:06:40
Open table 19:07 - 19:08 (first show) - 19:08:45 (finish loading 1st page)
Maximise  19:09:07 - 19:09:35 (finish loading 1st page)
Go to last record 19:09:50 - 19:11:56

I cannot find any reference to anything like 
java.net.PlainSocketimpl.socketAccept in the trace.

What I notice is that there is a set of lines starting with
read(72
and ending with
close(72)

(the number is not always 72) that is repeated more or less identically 
some 12,000 times in the 7 minute run.  Since each set appears to take 
around .02 seconds that alone would account for some 4 minutes of the run.
