After fixing critical NeoOffice 3.0 bugs reported by our users in previous patches, we have continued work on additional speed and stability improvements for our users.

In June 2009 we released NeoOffice 3.0 Patch 3 with the following new speed improvements:

  • Spreadsheet formula calculation speed improvements
  • Menubar display speed improvements
Get these new features by installing the latest patch from the NeoOffice patch download page.

Special thanks go to all who have donated to the NeoOffice.org project since we released NeoOffice 3.0. Without everyone's donations, not only would we have been unable to implement the these speed improvements, we would not have been able to provide rapid investigation and fixing of all of the critical bugs found by users.

Spreadsheet formula calculation speed improvements

Recently, Sun Microsystems' OpenOffice.org engineers released OpenOffice.org 3.1 with some significant speed improvements when working with large spreadsheets in Calc. While in most cases it is not feasible to integrate code from a newer version of OpenOffice.org than the version that NeoOffice is based on, in this case we were able to isolate and merge the following two OpenOffice.org 3.1 Calc speed improvements into NeoOffice 3.0:

Menubar display speed improvements

As a result of a fix for a critical crashing bug in NeoOffice 3.0 Patch 2, some users reported a delay of up to a second or more after clicking on the menubar or typing a menu shortcut. After much evaluation, we were able to optimize our Mac OS X menu handling code to regain the lost speed without causing any critical crashing bugs to reappear.
