| Summary | 0009542: Crash when importing very large vector file | ||||
| Description | When you try to import a very large vector file (several thousand objects), after using all the available memory in my PC, Scribus crashes with UNKNOWN EXCEPTION. The original format doesn't make a difference, it happens with eps/ai/svg. The file I attach, which exhibits the bug, is the result of tracing a bitmap with high accuracy, and contains little less than 20000 objects. I understand it's big, but the software is almost ready for low-budget semi-professional working environment, it needs a better memory management. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | bunzip the attached file, try to import in an empty scribus document. | ||||
| Additional Information | The file is exported from CorelDraw 10. I'm working with Scribus 1.3.9 and 4GB RAM, memory usage is about 60% after opening Scribus, quickly rises to 89% just before the crash. Here is the message on the console window: ======================================================================== Qt has caught an exception thrown from an event handler. Throwing exceptions from an event handler is not supported in Qt. You must reimplement QApplication::notify() and catch all exceptions there. Scribus Crash ------------- Scribus crashes due to the following exception : UNKNOWN EXCEPTION ======================================================================== I can successfully open the file in InkScape 0.47 (although every redraw locks the interface for almost 5 seconds). Just for a reference, I tried to open the file with Illustrator 10 on a WindowsXP PC with 1GB Ram: less than a second, and negligible amount of memory used.... :-( | ||||

I think this is linked to issue 0002221, but the resulting exception is different |

|
Same problem, the exception is only different because the system is different. |
