I have noticed that with LO 3.3.x and OOo 3.3.x, I could get one or the
other to crash if both were running at the same time. I haven't been
able to pin it down though, as it is somewhat irregular and put it down
to instabilities in both products. I have a theory that the programs
possibly attempt to address the same memory space during certain
operations, which potentially causes the problems. I can't prove it
because trying to run valgrind on two separate OOo/Neo/LibO instances
virtually brings my Mac to a standstill.

Hi :)
That is not specific to Macs.  It happens on all platforms afaik (i haven't 
heard from Bsd people).  That doesn't make it less important tho!

Tom :)
