Okular hangs while stat-ing files in the history. Often okular refuses to load for minutes then suddenly opens documents that I've long since forgotten about. This happens when I start okular from the terminal, the KDE or fluxbox menu, or by clicking on a link to a .pdf document in firefox. It does not seem to have anything to do with the particular document I want to open and happens even when I start okular from a terminal without any specific file. I ran 'strace okular' and it looks like it hangs at the stat system call for a file in the okular history. Right now the particular file was on a remote cifs file system. Clearing the history (once okular eventually loads) resolved the problem for now...
Is it stating files that are no longer accessible?
The whole cifs mounted file system in /mnt seems to have become inaccessible : so this is the kernel's problem. The only problem for okular is that there seems to be no way to tell it to load without statting every path it's ever seen.
Ok, this will need someone to be able to reproduce that "strange" scenario first, may take a while
