For me sometimes when I mount a NTFS partition is causing that wrestool to eat all my memory.

[Bug 659617] Re: wrestool repeatedly thrashing system for RAM with incomplete/downloading exes
I've made a quick patch to help with incomplete exes at least. Use with caution etc etc. Works for me. I don't think it will help with handling complete large files because of the way wrestool likes to load the entire file into memory and then move it around. If the exe seems to ask for 4GB of memory space it will happily allocate all that and then fill it with potentially garbage.

Same problem here. Downloaded large .exe successfully and viewed folder containing the file in nautilus. Suddenly wrestool uses up all memory (even minutes after I closed firefox and nautilus) and almost crashes my maschine. It's the first time I have seen this tool do something and I already hate it. Used latest up-to-date Ubuntu and Wine from the software center. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659617 Title: wrestool repeatedly thrashing system for RAM with incomplete/downloading exes -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
[Bug 659617] Re: wrestool repeatedly thrashing system for RAM with incomplete/downloading exes
This happens to me whenever I open a folder that contains a large .exe file. For example, I recently downloaded both the Mass Effect 2 and Dragon Age 2 demos (both 1.9GB .exe). When I open the folder either of them are in, wrestool eats up my memory I've attached a screenshot showing the RAM usage. ** Attachment added: "Screenshot of wrestool RAM usage" https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/icoutils/+bug/659617/+attachment/1868650/+files/screenshot1.png -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/659617 Title: wrestool repeatedly thrashing system for RAM with incomplete/downloading exes -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
