I can reproduce the problem. Using several copies of the image attached by Greg, memory starts to fill up and after a while even the swap. Only after closing gwenview every goes back to normal. It may be a problem with gwenview not releasing allocated memory or with tiff handling code. Will definitely need more investigation when we look into this (i.e. not before v14.0.0 is out). |
Created attachment 2046 [details] scanned image (tiff) of a construction drawing Using Gwenview to browse/view a folder of .tiff images, ranging from 350K to 1.2M. I can view about 10 images before it uses all remaining memory ~ 6gb. Using top I can see the memory use jump after viewing each file. I use the menu bar browse>view image feature, one image at a time. Viewing jpeg images the same size and manner, memory use stays about the same after the initial image is viewed.
