** Description changed: + This is a new bug in karmic, not present in jaunty. + I have a 6mb pdf file which consists of scanned pages. I try to attach it to an e-mail in evolution but it becomes unresponsive and top shows it's taking up to 600mb and growing. The same does not happen with 6mb of random data (courtesy of /dev/urandom). I am not going to attach the file here since it is copyrighted material, but I can surely provide the file privately to whoever needs it for debugging purposes. + + Update: the same happens with a 900k zip file, again I can't post it + here but can send it privately. This time there are no huge scanned pdfs + involved but there still are pdfs in the zip file. ** Tags added: regression-potential -- [karmic] attaching certain file causes evolution to choke taking more than 600MB of memory, while composing an e-mail https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/393534 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Desktop Bugs, which is a bug assignee. -- desktop-bugs mailing list desktop-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/desktop-bugs
