Comment 7 for bug 1463262

Hmmm... This is not looking good. So, I have 53 videos in my Videos directory. Each video is a few seconds long, around 5 MB in size each. I wipe the cache and start the gallery app, and scroll around to push requests to the thumbnailer. Then after a while, I see this in the log:

So, something repeatedly tries to allocate 24 GB of memory. I'm not impressed :-(
