Description Viesturs Zarins 2009-01-28 10:09:44 UTC
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.96)
OS:                MS Windows
Installed from:    MS Windows

When working on a po file, lokalize constanly runs new kioslave.exe, and they are never terminated, even after closing lokalize.

This may be a bug in kdelibs, but for now lokalize is the only program that I gave seen this effect.

Killing klauncher termintates all the kioslaves.
I cannot get any console output and it seems that KDE apps under windows do not understand any command line options, like --nofork.

did you check dolphin against kioslave.exe spam?
Comment 2 Viesturs Zarins 2009-01-30 09:37:14 UTC
Dolphin keeps down to humble 4 kioslaves, even after using it for about 10 mins.
And they all terminate in about 1 min time after dolphin is closed. With lokalize they keep running forever.
Comment 3 Viesturs Zarins 2009-01-30 10:06:03 UTC
After using Lokalize for about 10 mins, my 2 Gb of ram is filled up with more than 100 kioslves, 16 Mb each.

I disabled every Lokalize feature I could find and ended up with this:
* saving does not leak kioslaves
* just moving trough strings in a file leaks kioslaves. Even when the TM toolview is closed.
* Translation Memeory search (F7) does not leak kioslaves
* adding folder to TM slowly and irregularely leaks kioslaves over time (as the files get scanned?).

>just moving trough strings in a file leaks kioslaves.
Thanks. At least that makes a start point for me to investigate.

Hi,

Still present on kde 4.4.0.

Seems that when Lokalize is loading the project view it creates a lot of kioslaves.exe

Regards,

Luiz

I can add that lokalize generates an abnormal amount of messages in .xsession-errors. After leaving my system for a few hours I found it back with a full disk and the above file of 10GB. I do have a copy of the file with this name of 301 MB, which can be made available. Most of the errors are from lokalize.

I commented most of the kDebug() strings in jobs.cpp, so 4.4.3 will be less verbose.

With the new nightly builds from Craft I can't reproduce the issue on Windows. Let me know if you can still reproduce.

This bug has had its resolution changed, but accidentally has been left in NEEDSINFO status. I am thus closing this bug and setting the status as RESOLVED to reflect the resolution change.
