Public bug reported:

When I open more than my usual (3-4) text files, say 9+, mousepad
freezes, hits 100% CPU usage as reported by the 'top' command, and
starts taking up more and more memory - gigabytes if I don't notice it.

I can provide more details if others have the same issue and comment on
this initial report, otherwise I don't know what's going on - I trusted
mousepad until this started happening this week.

I've already uninstalled it because of frustration but I can try it out
later when I'm not in the middle of work.
