Follow-up Comment #5, bug #20988 (project mypaint):

Hm, it's running out of memory when generating the thumbnail, that's sad.
Maybe it's generating mipmaps for lots of empty areas of the image that are
not really needed, here at least we could do something.

I'm trying to figure out now if your image really has a content area larger
than memory, or if something else went wrong that we can fix more easily. The
size seems to be 6000x9000 pixels (which you probably intended, I assume?).
This should use something around 1GB of memory if all the area is painted, and
some of the layers have a large painted area too. (Plus some memory for undo
history and temporary memory.) Maybe it's simply too much for your 4GB of
total RAM. But let's check for empty areas first.

Can you please run the command "file data/*.png" in the unzipped directory?
(You may have to install 'file' first.) This will report the pixel size of
each layer PNG - I would like to know the largest sizes, and whether you think
this is much larger than you intended.

Can you then analyze the .PNG file with the largest pixel size and the .PNG
with the biggest file size (grano.png) in GIMP? I would like to know if either
of them has a huge area of blank space (more than 70%). If you see lots of
blank space, please also increase the alpha channel
(http://maxy.homeip.net/misc/increase_alpha.jpg) to check if there are a lot
of very faint brush dabs hidden.
