I'm seeing this with LibreOffice 4.4.3 on Windows 7, at least when there is a list of files in the recently used list. I've also seen it with olderIt only happens when using OpenVPN and the VPN is connected, and there are files in the recently used list that are on the shared drive on the remote Samba server; when the VPN is disconnected the File menu works as expected.
I last saw this issue in October 2014 with LibreOffice 4.2.5.2-hotfix1.

Lock up can be up to 30 seconds before control is returned to the user. I have found that this takes place even on documents located on the same physical machine, not just network hosted documents. Problem does not occur if I disconnect form the SSHFS drive. I can understand potential delay when editing a remote document but the connection to an SSHFS file server is affecting editing of locally held documents too.
