Bug Description
Binary package hint: gnash
Sometimes all the RAM and swap gets filled up and the computer slows down until it's almost dead. With a lot of paitience I can wait for <ctrl> + <alt> + <F1> to take effect and give a commandline. Even logging in here takes a lot of time. I then run top and wait a while, sooner or later gnash shows up. Nothing is really using the CPU but gnash is using a lot of memory and something's constantly working with the hard drive.
If I kill all instances of gnash (or at least all that uses a lot of memory) the hysteric use of the hard drive stops and everything seems to return to normal.
