Subject: w3m: eats more and more memory (or feeds it to X) when displaying images
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2003 23:39:05 -0400
Package: w3m
Version: 0.4.1-5
Severity: normal

(This may be what was reported in #115067 without enough detail.)

When running w3m in an xterm and viewing html pages containing jpeg
images (perhaps other types, too), w3m and w3mimgdisplay don't grow
unreasonably, but X (/usr/bin/X11/X) does.  X's virtual size increases
steadily as more images are displayed in w3m, and doesn't shrink until
w3m is stopped (at which point X returns immediately to its normal 
virtual size).

I hope that gives you enough information to find the bug; if not, tell
me what else you'd like me to look at and I will help.  Thanks.
