Bug ID: 474565
Summary: Crash upon hitting open file limit
Classification: Applications
Product: kdenlive
Version: 23.08.0
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: crash
Priority: NOR
Component: User Interface
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
Kdenlive crashes when it hits the open file limit. Possibly this could be
handled more gracefully, as this is likely to happen with any big project.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have a project with lots of clips
2. Open project
3. Crash
OBSERVED RESULT
Crashes
EXPECTED RESULT
Some kind of helpful error message
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
Workaround was to run ulimit -n 10000 before running kdenlive.
To test, you could run ulimit -n 10 first. Debian seems to default to 1000,
which is hit pretty easily. Probably kdenlive is keeping far more file handles
open than it actually needs to (this likely accounts for some of the excessive
memory consumption as well)
