I experienced this behavior earlier when editing HTML files. I can
reproduce the behavior when opening the provided osm.html file and
adding <a href=" to line 105. To reproduce:
- Open a gedit window
- Copy the source code into the editor
- Enable HTML syntax coloring
- Scroll to line 105
- Add <a href="
After typing the ", gedit starts eating all the available RAM and causes
my machine to start swapping. I tried to get a backtrace by using gdb,
but I was not successful (it said "no stack" when I entered "backtrace
full", and I'm not familiarized with the gdb).
Used packages:
[EMAIL PROTECTED] ~ ] dpkg -l | grep gedit
ii gedit 2.19.91-0ubuntu1
official text editor of the GNOME desktop en
ii gedit-common 2.19.91-0ubuntu1
