Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Noticing a great number of problems when doing lots of work with
podcasts.  (I'm currently subscribed to 54 of them.)

If I play a podcast and proceed to add and delete episodes of other
podcasts, Rhythmbox almost always crashes on me with a "Segmentation
Fault," "Aborted," or some similar complaint.  In addition, when
downloading these many podcasts hourly, Rhythmbox seems to utilize
gvfsd-http, which proceeds to create a memory leak which eventually
consumes all 2 GB of memory and most of swap, which will crash my
workstation if I don't kill the gvfsd-http process regularly.  Further
certain podcasts (i.e. http://speakingoffaith.org/podcast/podcast.xml)
which download gracefully in almost any other podcast program (i.e.
Juice, iTunes).

This is my current list of podcast feeds:
