Version: (using KDE 4.3.1) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages When visiting http://blog.kov.eti.br/?p=92 Konqueror starts trashing the system after a few seconds: $ ps axv | grep konqueror will give the following for several iterations: 5521 ? Sl 0:02 213 36 172687 57896 11.4 kdeinit4: konqueror [kdeinit] --silent 5521 ? Rl 0:05 213 36 331427 213628 42.2 kdeinit4: konqueror [kdeinit] --silent 5521 ? D 0:06 232 36 528855 337464 66.6 kdeinit4: konqueror [kdeinit] --silent Once it hits Mem > 60% swapping starts and only a killall konqueror gives back the system (thus tagging 'Crash'). On inspection it seems the following code triggers this behaviour: <html> <body> <p><img src="http://kov.eti.br/media/webkit/overview.gif" alt="GkOverview show off" /></p> </body> </html> While Konqueror can show this animated .gif directly, embeding it in HTML will yield the described behaviour. I am running current Debian unstable, but can provide specific version information on request.
I could reproduce the memleak and heavy CPU usage here: Qt: 4.6.0 (Qt git branch 4.6 commit f3d15516572394b6bcd44a89dd66516fa4eba56e Date: Fri Sep 25 10:21:23 2009 +1000) KDE: 4.3.70 (KDE 4.3.70 (KDE 4.4 >= 20091002)) kdelibs svn rev. 1030916 / kdebase svn rev. 1030916 on ArchLinux i686 - Kernel 2.6.30.6 Nice, the GIF is 16,9Mb....
Using a three years old notebook, the CPU and the memory usage is quite high, with a more recent PC the situation is quite better, anyway the CPU and the RAM are stressed too.
