I found a solution in the LibreOffice mailing list, which installs JRE version 1.6.0_21 and solves the slow performance issue:
(1) Completely uninstall sun-java6-bin and sun-java6-jre using Synaptic;
(2) remove Partners as a source;
(3) add the following two lines to your software sources:
deb http://ppa.launchpad.net/sun-java-community-team/sun-java6/ubuntu Maverick Main
deb-src http://ppa.launchpad.net/sun-java-community-team/sun-java6/ubuntu Maverick Main
(in my case, of course, I needed to use 'ubuntu lucid main' repositories instead)
(4) install sun-java6-bin.
(5) in Open/LibreOffice Tools > Options > Java, select the JRE version 1.6.0_21.
