Hi Libretto,
There's probably more I should be doing, but I don't do anything more than not opening a spreadsheet or presentation, for example, when I have a word processing document open. I mostly use OO to open or create Word-compatible text documents, so this isn't much of an issue for me anyway.
Back when I had only 128MB of RAM on this notebook I had lots of problems (bad freezing) with latger applications such as OO and the GIMP. You may need to experiment and see how much you can load at once, but don't risk any important unsaved data and be ready to force reboots if your system runs out of RAM and freezes up.
