Hello all,

I have a user that is using sview with their putty console through windows
and xming. He uses "&" to send sview to the background, but sometimes it
get stucked and he can't close the program.

I checked his bash_history. Here is a sequence of commands run by him:

ls
df
sview&
df
exit
sview&
df
cd examples/results/
emacs MEM_CPU.dat &
df
exit

After this commands, the sview command remains in the system forever using
the 100% of CPU.


  PID USER      PR  NI  VIRT  RES  SHR S %CPU %MEM    TIME+
COMMAND

sview

22782 uorore  30  10  376m  11m 8220 S 99.7  0.0   3033:43 sview



This is the sviewrc of the user:

AdminMode=NO
DefaultPage=Job
GridHorizontal=10
GridTopo=NO
GridVertical=10
GridXWidth=0
ButtonSize=10
RefreshDelay=5
MainWidth=1113
MainHeight=808
FullInfoPopupWidth=1077
FullInfoPopupHeight=984
RuledTables=NO
ShowGrid=YES
ShowHidden=NO
SavePageSettings=NO
TabPosition=Top
VisiblePages=Job,Partition,Reservation

I don't know how to reproduce the behaviour because in my account, using
ssh linux, it does not happen, or I couldn't make it happen.

Maybe there is a memory leak on sview? It's happening in slurm 2.3.3 and
2.3.1-1.

Regards
