Bug Description

The original picture is here: http://julien.olivier.free.fr/Scans-1.png .

The picture is very large, so the issue may be in the scaling method used by EOG vs the one used in GIMP. More over, if I open it right into Firefox, I notice that, while the picture is loading, it displays the same nois all over it. But, when finally loaded, it's clean again.

Years later, the bug is still there and EOG buggy (crashes, huge memory leaker, etc.). Maybe there is some better choise instead of eog?

the corresponding commit is https://git.gnome.org/browse/eog/commit/?id=fbc11280c6929852100de40e2dc70f5ec2adcea7 which looks like a good candidate to backport for the lts
