None of the above is true.

From http://contributing.openoffice.org/programming.html

"Most of OpenOffice.org is written in C++. However, new features can be
added using Java, Python, StarBasic, or JavaScript."


Then why is is so much slower than Word (which already is quite slow for

If you want *fast*, then WordPerfect 5.1 and Lotus 1-2-3 on DOS are the
way to go!

Should be blazing fast on today's machines. Run them from a RAM-disk
on startup.
