Bug#594087: okular: critical X server memory consumption (>1G) on big documents
Package: okular
Version: 4:4.4.5-1
Severity: important
STR:
- Open a big pdf (>2000 pages, ~13 MB (compressed))
- Navigate in it : display ~200 pages, waiting for each to be displayed.
=> X server virtual memory size grows linearly of nearly 1G.
If I display more pages, I exhaust my memory, starts swapping, thus resulting
of a huge slowdown of my laptop.
Closing okular seems to free all the resources allocated on the X server,
so it's likely to be some kind of X handle leak within okular.
Anyway the X server used is:
ii xserver-xorg-video-intel 2:2.9.1-4
X.Org X server -- Intel i8xx, i9xx display driver
Tell me if you need more infos.
Cheers.
