Public bug reported: Binary package hint: nautilus
I have a directory containing about 60000 small BMP images (2 kB each). When I open it in Nautilus and wait until it has generated its thumbnails and then go to the parent folder and try to delete the directory (I'm using SHIFT+Delete), Nautilus starts eating memory until I kill it. Attached is a screenshot where Nautilus has a VSS of about 3 GB! Smells like a memory leak somewhere... I'm running a current Feisty installation. ** Affects: nautilus (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: Unconfirmed -- Nautilus uses lots of memory when deleting directory with many small files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/105286 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug contact for nautilus in ubuntu. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
