Package: netpbm Version: 2:9.25-9.backports.org.1 Severity: normal When trying to rotate a 5388x2352 image through a small angle, I found that pnmrotate was consuming vast amounts of memory: all of the 256 MB of core, plus about another 400 MB of swap space. Because of all the swapping, many minutes are needed to rotate the image. The machine is not heavily loaded; I'm the only user.
I can rotate the same image using ImageMagick's "mogrify" command (which supposedly uses the same algorithm) in a reasonable amount of space (and time). A glance at the source code for pnmrotate shows nothing obviously wrong. Maybe it's a problem in some netpbm library? -- System Information Debian Release: 3.0 Kernel Version: Linux aty786 2.4.18-1-k7 #1 Wed Apr 14 19:20:42 UTC 2004 i686 unknown Versions of the packages netpbm depends on: ii bc 1.06-8 The GNU bc arbitrary precision calculator la ii libc6 2.2.5-11.8 GNU C Library: Shared libraries and Timezone ii libjpeg62 6b-5 The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG runtime li ii libnetpbm10 9.25-9.backpor Shared libraries for netpbm ii libpng2 1.0.12-3.woody PNG library - runtime ii libtiff3g 3.5.5-6.woody5 Tag Image File Format library ii zlib1g 1.1.4-1.0woody compression library - runtime -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
