I would also like to add that LibreOffice can be made to work quite fast with a few tweaks:
Launching Writer or Calc takes 1 sec or less for me (using an SSD). Launching Word or Excel at work takes quite a bit longer (also using an SSD).
I also think LibreOffice will handle native MS Office documents better than AbiWord would.
- Go to Tools → Options → LibreOffice → Memory
- Set the values as below
- Number of steps = 30
- Use for LibreOffice = 128
- Memory per object = 10
