Bug ID: 473554
Summary: gs process with high load during thumbnail creation
for specific (faulty?) pdf
Classification: Applications
Product: dolphin
Version: 23.04.3
Platform: Archlinux
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: dolphin-bugs-null at kde.org
Reporter: johanna_mueller_57 at yahoo.de
CC: kfm-devel at kde.org
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
When I open a folder in dolphin with a thumbnail view enabled that contains
this pdf [1], a "gs" process runs that fully consumes on of the cpu cores. It
runs for a while (seconds), and sometimes it seems that when it stops a new one
is started again, so this goes on for a while.
When I encountered this for the first time, I didn't have this folder open at
all, and I had three of them running in parallel, heating up my cpu enough for
me to notice this issue. I don't know if I had previously opened the folder
since the last reboot though (I often go days, sometimes weeks without reboot).
So maybe this can even happen during background-preparation of thumbnails or
something?
The pdf itself opens without problems in Okular and mupdf.

https://www.weishaupt.de/uploads/tx_weishaupt_documents/documents/83247601_10_16.pdf
2. open folder containing the pdf with dolphin with thumbnails enabled
OBSERVED RESULT
gs process with high cpu load spawned/possibly respawned
full command according to "ps aux", edited for privacy:
gs -sDEVICE=png16m -sOutputFile=- -dSAFER -dPARANOIDSAFER -dNOPAUSE
-dFirstPage=1 -dLastPage=1 -q - /home/me/path/83247601_10_16.pdf -c showpage -c
quit
EXPECTED RESULT
no high cpu usage or only for a short time
