With 1.3.3.x branch, minimum requirement just for loading that image is imageWidth * imageHeight * 4 * 2, the 2 factor being due to use of qstrings for storing images, so around 512Mb. For processing the image you'll need another 512Mb at least. We are now at 1Gb. Seeing some part of 1.3.3.x code add another 512Mo. Well already 1,5Gb...

In 1.3.4cvs, that is getting better as QStrings are not used anymore for storing image.

The optimal solution for that, at least in the export, would be if we would add
some functions to the ScImageLoad class which will fetch just 1 scanline at a
time. This will be relatively easy for .jpeg and .tiff images, .psd, .pdf and
.eps will make more troubles.

In addition to fetching the image one scan line / chunk / strip at a time, is it possible to progressively _encode_ using libjpeg as well? I know it can be done with zlib for flate-encoded images, but JPEG is more common and it'd be ideal to be able to do the encoding process in a more memory efficient way.

Failing that, perhaps decoding the source image into an mmap()ped temp file and passing that buffer to libjpeg is the way to go. The VM is smart enough to keep it in the page cache if it fits (so it's slower than using a RAM buffer, but not by much) but page it out if it doesn't (so we don't have to manage the work). I think Windows has differently named but very similar functions.

BTW, jo-hanes, it helps if you post the initial message from gdb as well as the backtrace. It mentions the signal that caused GDB to interrupt execution and that can be quite important. In this case it's not - it's a SIGABRT (6) caused by the abort() call in terminate() due to an uncaught std::bad_alloc exception - but it's not always that obvious.

I should RTFM before saying anything ... looks like libjpeg is made for such progressive encoding.

ringerc, the backtrace is from mrdocs iirc. i didnt get one on windows :) and i dont have 1.3.3.4 on linux.

to me the interest of this ticket was that it did provide a sample image.

we know that scribus does not play well with constrained resources... and i don't see much value in keeping this ticket open.
