Mirco Miranda <mirco...@gmail.com> changed: What |Removed |Added ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- CC| |mirco...@gmail.com --- Comment #10 from Mirco Miranda <mirco...@gmail.com> --- This patch should help: https://invent.kde.org/frameworks/kimageformats/-/merge_requests/209 If I remember correctly, the thumbnail generator leaves the task of determining the correct format to the plugins (regardless of the extension and mime type). As a result, formats like TGA that do not have a unique signature can result in false positives and the plugin tries to read them. It is not a good thing. To avoid excessive RAM usage, last year I modified the thumnailer with memory checks to prevent the system from threshing. I don't know if it still works though. Also, while writing the patch for the TGA I saw that it uses double the necessary memory. This probably doesn't help either. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
