[Issue 126785] New: Saving Large File Crashes

https://bz.apache.org/ooo/show_bug.cgi?id=126785

          Issue ID: 126785
        Issue Type: DEFECT
           Summary: Saving Large File Crashes
           Product: Calc
           Version: 4.1.2
          Hardware: All
                OS: All
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: Critical
          Priority: P5 (lowest)
         Component: save-export
          Assignee: issues@openoffice.apache.org
          Reporter: ericjohnhofmann@gmail.com

Hello, fan of the project. I had a large file approximately 77,000 rows by 20
columns. No fancy formats or anything, just numbers and text entries. I tried
to save it and the program crashed, permanently losing the file. I cannot
attach anything because the file is gone.

I am going to work around this by assuming I can never save a large document in
Open Office and just copying the data into a text file. I just thought the
issue should be brought to your attention. Cheers! :)

I updated the wiki page. the row limit is 1,048,576 since version 3.3

when I tried to reproduce your issue with a sheet of 77000x20 random numbers it
saved and opened fine as ods file.

I see, thanks! Clearly I exceeded the maximum number and so I won't do that
anymore.

Hello,

we need more information to help you.
is your issue reproducible? steps would be very helpful
do you have any (not sensitive) raw data to fill such a table? e.g said text
file
Why do you think it related to the file size?
Are you sure it not just slow?
What file format are you trying to save? xls supports only 65536 rows (but
should give a warning about that)

Hi.
We have not updated the information on maximum sizes for Calc for the 4.x
series but I suspect the maximum number of rows is still the same as what is
listed on this page:

https://wiki.openoffice.org/wiki/Documentation/FAQ/Calc/Miscellaneous/What%27s_the_maximum_number_of_rows_and_cells_for_a_spreadsheet_file%3F

We will make every effort to dig into the code for 4.x and update this
information.
