Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
When nautilus is set to generate thumbnails and enters into a directory with multiple video files, it will start rapidly eating memory even if the thumbnails are all generated and shown (no running gnome-video- thumbnailer process).It will release some and start increasing again periodically, until at some point it uses it all and crashes. The system can become sluggish after a very short while, and unresponsive as memory consumption increases. I'm using ubuntu 8.04 updated to latest, nautilus version 1:2.22.2-0ubuntu4 I'm not sure how to go about getting a backtrace. Following instructions from https://wiki.ubuntu.com/Backtrace I got the attached output. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New -- Nautilus rapidly eats memory when video thumbnails are active https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/219878 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is subscribed to nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
