Public bug reported:
When I tried gdebi-kde today to install an updated kdelibs-deb (to fix the
kopete issue) I suddenly noticed that my system was getting less and less
responsive, with increasing disk activity.
It seemed that gdebi allocated massive amounts of memory, when I checked with
"top" it said that gdebi-kde was using 56% of my available memory (1024MB). I
am quite sure that this wasn't the case when I used gdebi-kde before, although
I usually stick to using "dpkg" in a terminal.
The massive disk activity was apparently because of all the swapping the kernel
needed to do to get more memory.
I don't have any crash log or anything, but I'll be happy to provide the devs
with whatever gdb/valgrind/somethingelse-output they might need.
