Description Lucas Lommer 2006-08-11 10:51:36 UTC 
Nautilus starts eating memory while creating animated gif thumbnail.

Gnome 2.14.3 @ Ubuntu 6.06 (with all official updates), kernel 2.6.15 SMP with ubuntu patches.

Steps to reproduce bug:
1] Save http://people.freedesktop.org/~company/stuff/gte.gif to desktop (~/Desktop)
2] Nautilus is unable to create thumbnail image and starts eating all memory (see http://kdyne.net/temp_drom/nautilus-crazy.png) until you remove this image (and restart nautilus)

I'll try to reproduce it and save dbg traces...

Nautilus won't crash :), is there a way how to debug it without crash?
