From:
To:
- take a folder with 3Mb photos
- select 20 or 30 of them
- open the "share" dialog and choose Web Album...
- check the "resize if larger than [1280x1280]" checkbox
- click on export...

=> the memory consumption raises to very high levels, and the last photos
are not exported at all.
(If I don't check "resize", it even crashes)


When exporting 20 or 30 photos to a web album, I see the memory
consumption of gthumb raising to very high levels
