Sorry, forgot to say that if you have the time

Make process iterative...with each change, save as "{new}.xls" and test for load time.

If find the error, report it.

Procedure

If you have a lot of data and not much calculating, I suggest that you

 * save your file as a "csv" and a different {name}
 * Open both (use "xls" as reference for formulas)
 * Add formulas to "{name}.csv", confirm calculations are happening
   properlyand save as "{name}.ods"
 * close "xls"
 * Open "{name}.ods" and confirm calculations are happening correctly,
   save as "xls" with {new} name
 * Open "{new}.xls" and see how long it takes.

Hopefully it will strip out the load error and any cruft accumulated over time.

Note: Copy/Paste from XLS to ODS might work but CSV probably has less possible aberrations.

You will still have to check the "{new}.xls" to confirm it is correct.

If you find a difference, submit findings and reply here so others know what to look out for.

Hope this helps

Are you saving this file as an Excel formatted file (file.xlsx)? If so I wonder if the conversion from Excel into (and out of) Libreoffice spread sheet format ( .ods )  is taking extra time.

An experiment to determine if my guess is accurate would be to save a copy of the spreadsheet as .ods and see if the load time is better when opening it.

Might be worth the time if only to pin down the cause.

   I am using LibreOffice, but it takes a long time to load and save large Excel files. I am running Windows 11 Pro with 96 GB RAM and a 4 TB SSD. Can you provide a step-by-step guide to speed up the time it takes to load and
save large Excel files?
