Hello Jean-Baptiste,


I have tried to reproduce the crash on Linux 64 bits by setting the
option value to 30000 and the creation of a new speadsheet took several
minutes. No crash but 5 Go of RAM. I killed LibO instead of closing the
file. Problem: when creating another spreadsheet I had still the same
option. Knowing that you can't access Calc options without having a Calc
document opend, how do you kill this vicious circle? Ok, easy for an
experienced user: open a small existing Calc document and modify the
option. I am not sure whether a new user can find the solution easily.

My proposition:
1/ Maximum number of sheets : 10000
2/ Limit on the number of sheets created by default: 20

I won't implement that. We can't protect every user from his mistakes
and IMHO we shouldn't even try to do that. If a user thinks he needs
to set his initial number of sheets to 10000 he has to live with that.
Calc is not foolproof and I don't plan to make it.

I would agree if the end-user was aware that an empty spreadsheet is not
so empty than that.
If you don't want limit the option, we should make the text of the
option more informative about the possible problem with a too big value.

Best regards.
JBF
