| Summary | 0006996: Extreme memory usage for imported text | ||||
| Description | When importing a text from a larger text file - plain text, no formatting of any kind - scribus' memory usage is very high. Seems to be nearly 100 times the size of the file in bytes. After importing a 400 KB file, memory usage of scribus increased by more than 300 MB. This seems to affect the text object itself, not text frames / pages, as the memory usage went this high immediately after importing, when the document still only had 1 page, and adding 250 more pages to accommodate the whole text did not show a significant increase in memory usage. Also, the import takes about a minute (64-bit dual core machine) and scribus is very slow afterwards - but this seems already covered by other bug reports. I think I was reporting this some time ago already, but I was unable to find the previous report, so I'm starting a new one, as the issue apparently still persists in the latest SVN. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | Create a new document with automatic text frames (or create a new frame afterwards, doesn't seem to make a difference). Find a 300-400 KB text file and import it into that frame. Wait 1 minute for the file to load, while watching memory usage rise. | ||||
