This is why on my x86_64 native fedora core4t1 OOo is so slow to load? With same hardware and a 32bit OS i386 packages run faster?Nope. OpenOffice.org has never compiled or run under 64-bit architectures because it is seriously not 64-bit clean. That work is ongoing (part of its here on a hard drive on my desk) and is being committed to the "cws_src680_ooo64bit02" workspace upstream in OOo CVS. OOo runs on 64-bit platforms as a 32-bit program.
It will probably be FC6 time before anything useful on the OOo 64-bit front comes out.
