I cant reproduce this in Edgy on 0.44-1ubuntu1. However, its not completely satisfactory.
If I select only svg's, I see no issue. If I select a large PNG, the memory footprint jumps by about 30Mb, and drops only about 5Mb down regardless of what other items I select for preview. The memory is only freed when the dialog is closed. I do not know if that is related, and it may even be holding the memory from clawback, and reusing it during preview, which could be desired behaviour if it prevents fragmentation. -- Severe memory leak in 'Import'/'Open' dialogs https://launchpad.net/bugs/46570 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
