Bug Description

Hello,

I've recently noticed that gnome-system-monitor does not 'sanitize' programs icon to a sane size :

When it happen a program has a huge 'icon' (e.g. the OpenShot 462px*462px /usr/share/pixmaps/openshot.svg for example), it displays this huge 'icon' as is, at its nominal huge size, in its programs listing, rendering the interface almost unusable.

One would have preferred gnome-system-monitor to resize every icon to the same reasonable size in order not to mess its interface up.

Hope this helps.

Regards,
Valentin.
