Just found this in a different forum and wanted to share it with you:
If you install oooqs (for kde) or ooqstart-gnome (for gnome) - OpenOffice will load MUCH MUCH faster.
You can use kpackage/synaptic or "apt-get install oooqs" to install the package. You have to run the program "oooqs" after you install it.

Forgot to say that you have to install from "unstable".
apt-get install oooqs -t unstable
you also have to have the unstable sources in /etc/apt/sources.list

You'll also want to tweak the memory settings. GO into
Tools -- Options -- Memory
Set the graphic cache to 32MB and the Memory per Object to 2MB.
Makes it start and run faster overall.
