Yes, it's a problem. The best fix would be for wrestool to not have to load the entire executable to find the icon itself, although I'm not familiar enough with wrestool to know if it's possible. See: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icoutils/+bug/614918
Until that's fixed, a workaround would be to respect the Nautilus preferences checkbox you noted. ** Changed in: gnome-exe-thumbnailer (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided => Medium ** Changed in: gnome-exe-thumbnailer (Ubuntu) Status: New => Triaged -- exe thumbnailer eats all memory while thumbnailing large files https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/602767 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
