Wow! I can confirm that, with that PDF, a quick drag will make evince nonresponsive, peg the CPU, and start ramping up the memory usage. evince 2.28.1-0ubuntu1.1 from karmic-updates. I have visual effects disabled, so this is not simply a compiz issue.
This is also present on sid, version 2.28.1-1. The upstream git repository has a commit (f011461f, 6 Nov) labelled "fix memory leak," but I compiled from HEAD and the PDF tehf0x linked still causes the memory leak. I will try to file upstream. ** Bug watch added: GNOME Bug Tracker #581657 https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581657 ** Also affects: evince via https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=581657 Importance: Unknown Status: Unknown -- Memory leak when PDF objects are dragged around. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/481459 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
