Hello, I just tried gpdf on a large file with X.Org on Ubuntu Hoary (booted from a live CD). It appears that the problem is still there, but to a lesser extent. The PDF file that made XFree86 suck 200+ MB only expanded the X.Org server to 60-70MB. After a few minutes usage dropped to 45MB. While it is still noticeable, the effect is significantly smaller. Since gpdf is just a very vague and imprecise indicator of the actual problem of X sucking up large amounts of memory over extended periods of time, it would probably be more useful to try to run X.Org in real-life situations. I am contemplating migration to Hoary, but I am not sure that I can find time to do that. I will probably do the migration during the next few months, but I would not bet on it. P.S. Should I continue to send copies of mails to you directly, or will you pick them out from the Debian bug tracker system (I am not sure if it is sending copies to you automatically)? -- Gintautas Miliauskas <gintas@akl.lt>
