note1: LibreOffice for oos comes from LibreOffice site, not from oos.

note2: "Adobe Reader from Win7" means updated from oos, not Adobe site.

note3: Irfanview and Notepad++ have not been updated lately.

note4: oos not updated prior to CentOS 6.6 update.

interesting.

in the past couple of months, i read an article at att.yahoo.com
that oos had started rewriting their software so that it would not
be compatible with gnu/linux servers.

so, if you have updated linux and oos systems within past few months,
i would give thought to relation of updates of both systems and when
you started noticing slowdown.

just 'swag', but may prove out.
