Comment 7 for bug 588569

Currently 0.7.2 is in maverick and import from f-spot with 20.000 pictures crashes my 8GB machine (out of memory). It seems that shotwell is leaking memory when creating thumbnails.
According to the yorba ticket system the current discussion focuses on the situation *after* the import - but shotwell is unable to scale _during_ the import. This should be fixed, or a multi-step import could be used as a work around.
