Public bug reported: What happens:
EOG takes up memory for every individual picture that is displayed and doesn't free it up again until closed. With high resolution images, this can easily lead to OOM killer being invoked. How to reproduce: 1) have a directory with many images, preferably large file size 2) open one with EOG and keep scrolling through them with the arrow keys ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 22.04 Package: eog 42.0-1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 5.15.0-47.51-generic 5.15.46 Uname: Linux 5.15.0-47-generic x86_64 NonfreeKernelModules: nvidia_modeset nvidia ApportVersion: 2.20.11-0ubuntu82.1 Architecture: amd64 CasperMD5CheckResult: unknown CurrentDesktop: ubuntu:GNOME Date: Sun Sep 11 20:05:03 2022 InstallationDate: Installed on 2020-06-04 (828 days ago) InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 20.04 LTS "Focal Fossa" - Release amd64 (20200423) SourcePackage: eog UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to jammy on 2022-08-13 (29 days ago) ** Affects: eog (Ubuntu) Importance: Undecided Status: New ** Tags: amd64 apport-bug jammy -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to eog in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1989288 Title: EOG doesn't free memory and crashes system Status in eog package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: What happens: EOG takes up memory for every individual picture that is displayed and doesn't free it up again until closed.
