Description

To reproduce, you need stock CLD 10 system installed.
I don't know if it may affect this, but you can try open some folder in Dolphin, with any pictures or video, and make sure you have watched thumbnail ONCE.

On my system it happens even if I don't open any such folder, I have show miniatures OFF now. Does not help. After 6 hours running, I had kernel reload kde4.

Effect: System may crash(reload kde4init), because kio_thumbnail eats up ALL memory.

Bug is known, see this: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase-runtime/+bug/289338

I also attach two files: one with dmesg log when kio_thumbnail gets killed(together with current kde session), another one is image of htop with kio_thumbnail eating 4Gb of memory(and growing).

This is not special bug of Calculate, but of KDE 4.3.3, please close it once its fixed upstream. :(
