[libreoffice-users] Extremely Slow Base Report Builder

Greetings,
I have installed LibreOffice (LO) 3.5.3.2 and I am quite pleased with 
it.  I am a long-time OpenOffice (OOo) user going back to 1.0 and even 
Star Office before that and after not being able to install the latest 
Apache OpenOffice (AOO) version, I switched to LibreOffice.  I say that 
to confirm I am a new user to LO, but somewhat experienced with the 
*Office tree.

I used Oracle Report Builder 1.2.1-rev2 on my OOo 3.3.0 for some time 
and expected the LO Report Builder to be fine, especially since 
configuring & importing my MySQL databases, forms, queries, etc. worked 
great.  Report Builder does seem to work - sort of- but it is extremely 
slow when executing the report.  So slow, it is unusable; taking minutes 
to display a report in Writer.  Then it keeps repeatedly going out to 
lunch for long periods so I cannot do anything with the report in 
Writer, such as scrolling down to examine the report.  I am using the 
following database server:

   MySQL 5.0.67
   MySQL-connector-java-5.0.7-bin.jar
   Sun Java  1.6.0u11

A few months ago, I had a similar problem with OOo 3.3.0 after I updated 
my Java RE to 1.6.0u30.  I posted my problem on the OOo Users forum and 
was told OOo 3.3.0 will only work with Java up to u22.  That problem did 
not just affect Report Builder, but the entire Base functionality.  This 
time with LO, the non-Report Builder Base functions work fine, at 
"normal" speed.  I do not see any hesitation with Base form data entry.

Is my current Report Builder problem caused by this Java problem again?
Unlike OOo 3.3, will LO 3.5.3 work with the later Java versions and 
should I try updating my Java again?
I also have a Free Software Foundation Java 1.4.2 installed, but I think 
I read somewhere not to use it with LO.
Any suggestions where to look would be appreciated.  Thanks in advance.
Girvin Herr
