I tested a bit and it seems that the time depends on how big the source 
files are.
-1) If I open a CALC or a WRITER file with 10 links to 10 *10Kb* CALC 
files (in total 100 links) it asks me to update links, I answer YES, it 
takes about few seconds.

2-) If I open a CALC or a WRITER file with 10 links to 10 *800Kb* CALC 
files (in total 100 links) it asks me to update links, I answer YES, it 
takes about 1 minute, and it is accettable.

3-) If I open a CALC (attached) file with 10 links to 10 *10Kb* CALC 
files (in total 100 links) it asks me to update links, I answer NO, then 
I expand formulas in the 100 cells (for expand I intend dragging the 
small black square in the lower right angle of B2 cell first 
horizontally (it takes few seconds) then vertically in the resulting 
selection) it takes about *1 minute*, and it accettable

4-) If I open a CALC (attached) file with 10 links to 10 *800Kb* CALC 
files (in total 100 links) it asks me to update links, I answer NO, then 
I expand formulas in the 100 cells it takes about *9 minutes*, and it 
seems to me too much :-)
