Huge memory footprint when importing a custom project

[Nick Savoiu]

Hi all,

I was asking about this a while ago but got no answer and things are getting
worse. Check out below the memory usage of kdevelop when importing a +5000
files custom project. The way I read it it says that kdevelop is using
nearly 3GB!

Is there some really out of hand memory leak going on here?

Cheers,
Nick
