Same here with Lucid AMD64. I created a very simple image with OpenOffice and exported to SVG. I can see a preview in Nautilus, when I try to open it in EOG the whole GNOME desktop freezes. When I try to drag&drop the image, desktop freezes. When I select it in Firefox for upload, desktop freezes. Therefore I had to gzip it.
