[vlc] Memory Problem on linux (fedora 14, same with fedora 13)

[Roumano]

Hi,

Sometimes, not reproductible easy, i have a problem with vlc :

It will consume all my memory available

I need to stop it as soon as possible as my pc is not responding (too
much overloaded)

After a look on /proc/PID/smaps of the pid of Vlc , i have found this
section :

02509000-b9d1b000 rw-p 00000000 00:00 0
