Description Michael Meier 2011-01-08 02:11:26 UTC 
Version:           4.6 (using KDE 4.5.95) 
OS:                Linux

Using dolphin, go to the root folder of a hard disk and start searching for a file.

As the search goes on, the kio_filenamesearch process will consume more and more memory. I killed it when its heap size was about 1.1GB, just soon enough before it would have brought my system down due to continuous swapping.

Reproducible: Always
