Bug Description

Running 0.15.0-0ubuntu1 on Saucy, while deleting images (stepping through then and hitting del key) shotwell froze and the screen darkened for maybe 30 seconds. The disk was chattering and I suspect it was grabbing large amounts of memory and causing disk swapping. It then crashed but a popup said it was unable to report the crash as there was insufficient memory. Crash report log attached.

You didn't get a core file or a stack trace, did you?

Is there not some of that in the crash report?
Is it possible to get a stack trace after the event? It has only done it once.

Unfortunately, the crash report only shows process status at the time of the crash, not a stack trace.

the apport file is a reduced version so it doesn't include the dump, we need a stacktrace to be able to work on the issue
