            Bug ID: 167331
           Summary: Memory leak in Calc; <500kb spreadsheet file open in
                    the morning can consume all system memory (16GB) by
                    the end of the workday.
           Product: LibreOffice
           Version: 24.8.7.2 release
          Hardware: x86-64 (AMD64)
                OS: Windows (All)
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: medium
         Component: Calc
          Assignee: [email protected]
          Reporter: [email protected]

Description:
Open LO/Calc at 7:30AM with 447kb .ODS file.
LO is using about 280MB at that time, per Win10 Task Manager
By 12:30 PM, memory usage is up to ~3GB and will continue to climb throughout
the day. The file in question gets intermittent usage during the day, but even
when the computer is.
By the end of the workday, as much as all of the system memory (16GB) can be
filled by LO, even if the single file is just sitting there unused throughout
the day. At that point, the pagefile is working very hard.

This behavior never occured with my prior 7.x.x.2 installs, yet almost always
occurs with 24.8.5.2 / 24.8.7.2.

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open <500KB .ODS file in the morning
2. Either wait all day or lightly use the single file.
3. Check Windows Task Manager by end of day, to see as much as 12GB being
utilized by LO/Calc for the same file.

Actual Results:
Memory usage by LO/Calc after 9 hours can be up to 12GB, for just the single
<500 KB file

Expected Results:
Closing LO/Calc & reopening with the existing file gets usage back down to <300
MB. I would expect some escalation to occur throught the day based on user
operations, but have even seen this extreme memory usage with an unattended PC
running LO/Calc


Reproducible: Always


User Profile Reset: No

Additional Info:
Have been doing this exact usage for the past few years, with no abnormal
memory usage until very recently.  The only other change from past years is
that I had LO finally save the particular file as .ODS rather than .XLSX.  So
only two system operational changes of significance.

I will attempt to attach three screenshots of Windows Task Manager
