Package: libjpeg-progs Version: 6b-11 Severity: normal jpegtran appears to ignore the -maxmemory and JPEGMEM options, at least in certain sitations. It is documented to limit the memory usage of jpegtran. But:
$ JPEGMEM=1m jpegtran -opt -maxmemory 1m -flip horizontal -trim -progressive -outfile FLIPPED/slide010.jpg ROTATED/slide010.jpg for a certain large file I have immediately allocates 461M of virtual address space (over 200M of which is resident, on this machine). This also occurs for: $ JPEGMEM=1m jpegtran -opt -maxmemory 1m -rot <somethig> -trim -outfile slide010.jpg ROTATED/slide010.jpg It may well be that the maxmemory options are universally ignored. If they are only ignored for some input options, then the man page ought to clearly specify which options those are -- allocating so much memory severely hoses my machine! --scott -- System Information: Debian Release: testing/unstable APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'stable') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.15-rc5 Locale: LANG=en_US, LC_CTYPE=en_US (charmap=ISO-8859-1) Versions of packages libjpeg-progs depends on: ii libc6 2.3.5-9 GNU C Library: Shared libraries an ii libjpeg62 6b-11 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG libjpeg-progs recommends no packages. -- no debconf information -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
