For me the OOo has failed because its startup time is too long (mostly due to its excessive IO usage). And that's about the only reason.
I'm writing this on an Asus Eee PC - the original 701 model. With other stuff (e.g. Firefox) running, the PC starts up OpenOffice.org 3.0 in around 10 seconds first time, about 6 seconds thereafter.
Maybe you're blaming OOo when you should be blaming a broken o/s on your PC?
