I am using qgis 3.28.7, built under pkgsrc on NetBSD 9 amd64. Generally things work well, aside from this problem. My machine has 24 GB of RAM.
For plugins I have QField, geoscience, Lat Lon Tools, CoGo, DB Manager, Numeric Digitize, Quick Map Services, Quick OSM, SLYR CE. None of that seems unusual. I have "all.qgz" which is basically a project where I stick everything of interest so I can click them on and off. My data, and a lot of layers from MassGIS (government GIS agency). Some are in postgis, and a lot of shapefiles, some very large. I have been saving this as .qld so that I can create projects for specific usages with a reduced layer set. (Motivated in part by QField, but QField, other than the plugin being installed, is not part of the issue.) For a lot of layers, I successfully created .qlr files: DHS-nursing-homes.qlr carto-basemap-osm-tms.qlr massgis-MAD-TRAILS.qlr massgis-basemap-tms.qlr massgis-imagery-2019-tms.qlr massgis-imagery-2021-tms.qlr massgis-lidar-shaded-relief-old-tms.qlr massgis-lidar-shaded-relief-tms.qlr massgis-lidar-slope-tms.qlr massgis-parcels-tms.qlr some are TMS, some are local shapefiles. I also have a bunch for private data in gpkg, and some georeferenced tiffs, etc. At some point, I started having trouble with "save as layer definition file". When it works it is very fast, as I would expect it's just writing out information that is handy in memory. In particular I do not expect it to iterate over the data. This was under .6, and I just updated to .7. When it doesn't work, qgis uses 100-150% CPU (meaning 2 threads at times), and the memory usage climbs rapidly, from maybe a few GB to as high as 50 GB, with RSS staying maybe around 10 GB. This starts to make the machine unhappy overall and I kill it. Obviously I need to debug, but I wonder: is anyone else having problems saving qlr files? is my assumption that qgis does not read a layer's entire data valid? is it true that plugins are not in the loop when saving qlr? any other clues?
