Bug ID: 358915 Summary: Search large open file for reg ex 'error|' freezes xorg Product: kate Version: unspecified Platform: Archlinux Packages OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: crash Priority: NOR Component: search Assignee: kwrite-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: malc...@boura.org Arch Linux Kate version Version 15.12.1 Using: KDE Frameworks 5.18.0 Qt 5.5.1 (built against 5.5.1) The xcb windowing system KDE Plasma Version 5.5.4 Kernel Version 4.4.4-3-ARCH 64 bit CPU 4@3.4G Memory 7.7GiB Using search plugin, open files, regular expression, case insensitive Two files open: One small file with excerpts from a large one 134K, 1300 lines. Entering expression 'error|warning|failed' Got as far as the first | and the desktop froze. Xorg CPU at 100% Had not recovered after a coffee trip, probably 10 minutes or so. Killing Kate did recover the desktop. Second run: I started with search in folder plain text. Then switched into open file, regular expression and it worked. Third: I then deleted the string back to 'error', typed '|' and it froze again. My guess is that 'error|' resulted in an attempt to build a found list containing 1300 or so items which gave the UI more than it could handle in a sensible time. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
