            Bug ID: 479612
           Summary: Massive memory leak when looking at a file
    Classification: Applications
           Product: dolphin
           Version: 23.08.4
          Platform: openSUSE
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org

  Target Milestone: ---

SUMMARY
A file from an old Windows video game makes Dolphin use all my RAM. It's a
problem that has persisted across a couple of months of updates. I can't tell
when exactly it started, or if it has always been there, as I haven't looked at
these files in a very long time. I can provide the offending file for analysis,
but it's 8,9MiB large so it does not fit the attachment.

STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Have the file visible in Dolphin
2. Wait a couple of seconds

OBSERVED RESULT
All of my 32GB of RAM consumed in just a few seconds.

EXPECTED RESULT
No excessive RAM usage.
