This seems to be fixed in firefox 7.0.1 (tested on 10.10/maverick with 7.0.1+build1+nobinonly-0ubuntu0.10.10.1~mfs1), but can be confirmed for eog 2.32.0-0ubuntu1.
The same symptoms can be observed when this and 2 other gifs are opened with google chrome 16.0.904.0, see http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=100170 ** Bug watch added: code.google.com/p/chromium/issues #100170 http://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=100170 -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/839251 Title: EOG and Firefox eat up memory when opening animated GIF To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/firefox/+bug/839251/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list [email protected] https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
