Julien, in a vlc forum a user suggest to use the following script to limit the ram usage of vlc and avoid your system becoming unstable:

I'm not sure if the Valgrind trace will be useful then though. -- memory leak https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/575460 You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
