           Summary: kio jobs clobber the event loop when handling local
                    files/local sockets [regression]
           Product: kdelibs
           Version: 4.4
          Platform: Compiled Sources
        OS/Version: unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdelibs-bugs@kde.org
        ReportedBy: germain@ebooksfrance.org


Version:            (using Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

when using a KIO job to transfer some resource from a local file or a local
socket, the event loop is stuffed with data() signals in such a way that the
receiving application cannot even consume other tasks (such as elapsed timers).

The responsiveness of the GUI suffers greatly from this
(in fact, it cannot update/repaint at all).

reproduce : try opening some huge (e.g. 20 MB) html with Konqueror on a local
server.

konqueror ./huge.html => gui locked up, no timer can fire.
konqueror http://localhost/huge.html => idem
konqueror http://myip/huge.html => gui is responsive, event loop consumes
events/timers normally.

konqueror 4.2.4 works fine with all of the above.
