Description Yury 2015-01-07 08:12:43 UTC 
I'm working on a big document with lots of formulas in 3.6.7.2 (linux/amd64). 

Today writer began to crash on opening the document. It shows the line of squares in the statusbar, progress comes to about 65-70% then everything in writer stops (including the window redraws), `top` tool shows 101% cpu usage and about 40% mem usage for a couple of minutes, and finally writer crashes with the following output in the console:

terminate called after throwing an instance of 'std::bad_alloc'
  what():  std::bad_alloc

What do I do and am I ultimately screwed??

I can't migrate to 4.* series because of https://bugs.freedesktop.org/show_bug.cgi?id=88139 (I can open the doc there -- yet)

I can't attach the doc in question, as that is unpublished etc. The doc itself is ~4M in size, its zip structure is uncorrupted.

Can you do a regex to replace all characters with x or use this macro: https://wiki.documentfoundation.org/QA/BugReport/Attachments#Confidential_Attachments

I've replaced the text letters, but will have to do the same with formulas. I'll have to modify the python script which I use for batch formula font settings modifications. Or you could suggest something of the kind which is ready-to-use. :)
