Public bug reported: If apt-add-repository has to work with a file with 20000 entries, even when all but 20 are commented out, it will bring a machine slowly to a halt.
IO writes of >100MB/s will happen, so basically saturating all available bandwidth of a rotating disk. This will bring a machine to a stand still due to extreme load. ** Affects: software-properties (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: canonical-bootstack ** Tags added: canonical0 ** Tags removed: canonical0 ** Tags added: canonical-bootstack -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1841525 Title: apt-add-repository can take machine down To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/software-properties/+bug/1841525/+subscriptions -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
