Bug ID: 513655
Summary: Folders with kdenlive projects in dolphin create 5
2.2+ GiB kioworker processes
Classification: Frameworks and Libraries
Product: kio-extras
Version First unspecified
Reported In:
Platform: EndeavourOS
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Thumbnails and previews
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
A 2.2 GiB kioworker process is spawned when a folder viewed in Dolphin includes
a kdenlive project file.
As soon as I remove the kdenlive project, only a 38.9 MiB kioworker spawns. The
folder still includes a few small JPGs/PNGs.
>From the original directory that triggered me troubleshooting this, 2 out of 14
folders had kdenlive projects in them, totaling up to 3 kdenlive project files.
Viewing this folder causes 5x 2.2 GiB kioworker processes to spawn, making it
impossible to do anything RAM intensive on my system.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Open kdenlive
2. Create new project (1440p 60fps in this case), drag random image into
timeline, save project, close.
3. Open dolphin
4. Navigate to folder including the kdenlive project
5. Search for kioworker in KDE System Monitor processes panel, observe amount &
RAM usage
OBSERVED RESULT
5 kioworker processes with 2.2-2.8 GiB of memory usage are spawned.
EXPECTED RESULT
I-don't-know-how-many-but-perhaps-less kioworker processes with ~30 MiB (?) are
spawned.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
Linux/KDE Plasma: EndeavourOS 6.18.2-arch2-1 (64-bit) with KDE Wayland
KDE Plasma Version: 6.5.4
KDE Frameworks Version: 25.12.0-1
Qt Version: 6.10.1
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
What I find interesting is that the "pest" spreads over to the other processes.
No kdenlive projects: 5 kioworker processes with ~70 MiB
With kdenlive projects: 5 kioworker processes with ~2.8 GiB
Closing dolphin immediately stops the kioworker processes.
I tried replicating the issue on my laptop (same folder, same distro, same
packages, same versions, same dolphinrc(!!)) but it refuses to display
thumbnails for kdenlive files and folders in general.

I hope this bug report is okay, please let me know if I missed
something/mislabeled it, it's my first time using Bugzilla.
