Bug Description
Binary package hint: openoffice.org
This may be related to bug 93785, but that bug was confirmed only to be a 64-bit bug and I am on 32 bits.
I have an XLS spreadsheet (attached below) that consists of a simple table and a chart. When I click on the chart elements, such as the line or the axis labels, it doesn't take more than 3-4 clicks before memory use zooms up, the keyboard and mouse buttons become unresponsive, and I have to go to another screen and kill ooffice. Memory use grows from a few hundred K to the full RAM in under a minute, at which point the disk becomes active and the swap gets hit, but further memory growth is then very slow. Before the swap is hit, the alternate screen is responsive. Once swap is hit, the alternate screen is slow but usable. Regardless of whether swap has been hit, on the X screen I can move the mouse but I cannot type or click. Screen refreshes do not happen when I switch from X screen to tty screen.
I am running 2.2.0-1ubuntu4 on 7.04 with all updates on an Intel Pentium M (IBM T40).

Try clicking on the line or the X axis a few times.
Run top and sort on memory first, and watch that.
Be prepared to switch to another screen to kill ooffice!
