Replication steps which mimic the test file (too large to attach): 1. Create a file with canvas size 5175x2625, 300ppi 2. Add many layers (15 including the background) 3. Draw some strokes using any brush on a layer 4. Save (this save works, takes about 7 seconds) 5. Draw a high number of strokes (about 20-40) 6. Save again This time the save dialog will remain and never complete. The file is not saved and the dialog must be closed to regain control. The app cursor stays in the "busy" state after this, allowing menu usage, but not tool use. The application may be quit normally, but the document cannot be saved. Performance settings were: Memory available: 8079MiB Memory Limit: 4039MiB Internal Pool: 199MiB Swap Undo After: 237MiB File Size Limit: 4GB Progress reporting enabled Tests showed that increasing the internal pool value allowed saving to complete.
This was already reported as 369014. The latest beta builds (http://download.kde.org/unstable/krita/3.0.92) have a potential fix for this issue. I couldn't trigger the issue on Windows and Linux anymore with this build, but I need more people to test it. *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of bug 369014 ***
Btw, I'll also increase the default setting for the internal pool. I wouldn't have expected that to make a difference, but we can do it anyway.
Version 3.0.92 appears to correct the issue under the same circumstances/same file/same settings. Great work!
