Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: gedit
Opening the attached file (base64 mess) causes gedit's memory usage to
skyrocket. It reached 1.2GiB for me and gedit was still unresponsive.
Chopping the file in half and opening again means gedit uses about half
as much memory as before, but becomes responsive while showing a line of
weird characters (looks like many characters that have been placed on
top of each other).
gedit/intrepid uptodate 2.23.1-0ubuntu2
** Affects: gedit (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: New
