Excessive memory usage 2.10.24 r2
#3
Thanks! I didn't know about the dashboard. Handy tool.

   

The comparison confirms that there's a problem.

I don't recall ever enabling OpenCL, never had a reason. PS import was non-specific--I meant PostScript import, which I only installed "just in case." In case of what I'm not sure; I'll probably never need it. I don't export to psd; don't need to. I export to flat image files, mostly png, jpg, and bmp.

I haven't opened any of my old PhotoShop files in 2.10. Just did a search, though, and yeah, they're huge. But so are some of my .xcf files. (One is 53.4 Mb, 250 layers. That one probably needs some pruning.) I do expect slowdown when I have something like that open, but not the memory grab on a new open.

The minute is when I close gimp. I'm watching the clock and Resource Monitor for commit. I close gimp, its line goes gray, and it's a full minute later that it disappears. It releases committed memory quickly when I close a file.
