Bug ID: 404542 Summary: Gwenview crashes after a few minutes of 180% CPU on large directory of 12000 images Product: gwenview Version: 18.12.2 Platform: Neon Packages OS: Linux Status: REPORTED Severity: crash Priority: NOR Component: general Assignee: gwenview-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: jpha...@gmail.com Target Milestone: --- SUMMARY Gwenview crashes on a very large directory in Browse mode. The directory has 12111 images and 247 videos, totaling 36.2 Gb. Invoking Gwenview in View mode works OK, consuming a lot (>80%) CPU, but still responds. Switching to Browse mode instantly freezes the machine (unresponsive cursor response to mouse moves, 180% CPU) which crashes after a couple of minutes. The behaviour is repeatable. System info:... KDE Neon 5.14 running on Zotac E1750 with 4x core i7 CPU @ 3.2GHz, 16G RAM, 2Tb SSD. Operating System: KDE neon 5.14 KDE Plasma Version: 5.15.0 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.55.0 Qt Version: 5.12.0 Kernel Version: 4.15.0-45-generic OS Type: 64-bit Processors: 8 × Intel® Core™ i7-4770R CPU @ 3.20GHz Memory: 15.4 GiB of RAM STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Use Dolphin to browse to the directory and select any image for open in Gwenview 2. Gwenview works OK in View mode, able to switch between images and scroll the thumbnail bar. 3. Switch to Browse mode OBSERVED RESULT Gwenview freezes the entire machine, and crashes after a couple of minutes of 180% CPU use, according to 'top'. Mouse cursor doesn't resppnd to mouse movement until after Gwenview crashes, when the system returns to normal. EXPECTED RESULT Normal browse behavior.
