I was not able to replicate this scenario on another server, this  
time a single CPU machine.  However - I now note that on the first  
server, I get the output referred to above when I run javaldx. On the  
server which still runs OOo slowly, I get no output at all when I run  
javaldx. Could this be the problem?
