Hi, I've recently overtook the gv Debian package and am currently
looking in the old bugs.

Here the file just needs a bit of time and then causes the X server to
consume around 400MB more. (which is not that much considering a
10000x10000 pixel image of the whole page is loaded into it).
What kind of machine do you see this behaviour on? Would the X server
taking 400MB more be likely to cause that kind of swapping?
Hochachtungsvoll,
Bernhard R. Link
