Comment 2 for bug 1161091

This is happening to me as well, on two different computers. I installed Microsoft Visual C++ 2008, but it still crashes, seemingly without any sort of catalyst or trigger. No matter what I do, it crashes after about ten minutes of use. My laptop has an Intel Pentium(R) dual-core CPU with 2.2 GHz, and 4 GB of RAM, while my desktop has an Intel(R) Xeon CPU with 3.2 GHz and 2 GB of RAM. I am using Windows 7 on my laptop, and Windows XP on my desktop. I have Inkscape 0.48.1 and Inkscape 0.48.4.

These crashes are accompanied by massive amounts of memory usage (1,498 MB).
