          Platform: Unlisted Binaries
        OS/Version: Linux

Qt 3.3.3 
KDE CVS, 3.3 branch 
Gwenview: current CVS (2004/11/19) 
 
When I view a large file like (2MB compressed, approx. 8000x8000 pixels) 
 
http://static.capsi.com/blog/kde.dot.ps.jpg 
 
gwenview eats a huge amount of RAM: 
 
... 519396 390796 ... gwenview 
 
where GIMP needs much less:  
 
... 91160 86680 ... gimp-2.0 kde.dot.ps.jpg 
 
In version 1.0.1 it seemed even worse - loading the file froze my system (512 
MB RAM) nearly completely until I was able to killall gwenview.
