Hi Roland, Tested with several objects at random, the problem seems to be zooming while antialias feature is enabled. Try the following:
- Start with a blank canvas (my default here is A3 size, guess the problem isn't related to this) - Add a "regval" object from "chemeng" sheet. - Zoom in & out, resize or move at random, the memory usage should stay moreless stable (~30MB here). - Enable antialias - Zoom in & out to random scales, the memory usage starts increasing (~35MB). - Resize the object to a big scale, say half the canvas' paper size. - Zoom at random again, the memory usage grows faster this time. Performing as above with just one object may not eat up memory too fast, but drawing three of four simple objects speeds things way up. Also, I found no differences while playing with the object's properties, nor when playing as above without antialias feature. Also, if you close the diagram but keep dia's toolbar open the memory is not freed. Hope this helps. 2009/6/24 Roland Stigge <[email protected]> > Hi Antonio, > > Antonio Trueba wrote: > >> While editing simple diagrams, dia's memory consumption grows way too >> much. >> >> After adding two or three standard objects to a blank canvas, modifying >> some of their properties and zooming >> >> in and out a couple of times, the program ate all available RAM (1,5GB) >> and about 500MB of swap >> before I had to kill it.
