CPU Load/Memory Usage

[kingtut]

One of my clients has created a directory and added many large images. Now when trying to load the folder/thumbs in file browser, the server CPU load and memory usage goes through the roof, then the thread crashes. Any ideas as to what could be done about this?

EDIT: filebrowser 3.4.3

EDIT: Ok I've isolated the problem to be something to do with the version_object template tag code (thumbnail generator). I will attempt a switch to sorl.thumbnail for now.

would be interesting what´s different with sorl.thumbnail and if it works with switching ...

[kingtut]

It works super fast with sorl thumbnail; as it uses a caching system for thumbnails. Haven't had time to check details. But at a wild guess it stores some kind of image info (image dimensions perhaps?) that PIL would ordinarily get by loading the image into memory.

@kingtut tried to reproduce this, but I'm not able to ... using the stable/3.5.x branch with pillow.

@kingtut if you finde the time, you might wanna test again with master – this should be solved. please reopen the ticket, if the issue still exists.
