Can you give me details please? cat /proc/version, geeqie --version, etc?

But again, more details would help. Could you try cloning the latest git from: git://geeqie.git.sourceforge.net/gitroot/geeqie/geeqie and building it and letting us know what happens?

Can you send a screenshot from 'top' just before it happens? You could also run geeqie with --debug to see if that gives more info.
