Title:
Huge memory usage when changing background
Status in gnome-control-center package in Ubuntu:
Incomplete
Bug description:
When I open "change background" window in Settings, RAM usage of
gnome-control-center goes over 2 gb. In practice I can't change background
since gnome-control-center fills all memory, freezing the system.
In general, system will freeze without return every time a program fills the
memory faster than the system moving memory to swap.
