Package: ipe Version: 7.0.10-2 Severity: normal
Hi, I'd recommend disabling swap before you try this. Steps to reproduce: 1. Enable snapping to the grid. 2. Create a circular arc using the centre and two points tool. Make it so the two points are spaced along a vertical line. 3. Edit the arc (CTRL-E) and move one of the points so that it is horizontal to the other point. The centre will move out and, as soon as the two points are in a horizontal line, ipe will immediately consume all RAM and (if you have it) start thrashing swap space, making the machine quite unusable. I would've reported it upstream, but they do not seem to accept unsolicited communications of any kind (i.e. I'd have to sign up to bugzilla or subscribe to the mailing list), which seem a bit rude to me.
