Using Image Viewer (EOG) to view slideshow Cinnamon memory usage has started increasing with the size of the images viewed.
e.g.
- right now: Cinnamon memory 888.5 MiB
- double click 32MB zip (open with with archive manager). zip file is accessed on local nas (synology)
- select-all, open-with ImageViewer
- click slideshow...wait 75 x 5secs
- end: Cinnamon memory 925.9 MiB
Clicking through images manually (using Next):
- about every 1-2 file the system freezes for a few seconds at 100 %CPU (normally super fast off the HDD)
- seems to freeze at different points i.e. sometimes Image Viewer displays "opening file in /home/me/.cache" etc in status bar for a long time...
Running 'top' during freeze:
(info captured as soon as system started responding and I could focus terminal and hit ctrl-z)

While pressing 'next' (as continuously as possible), Cinnamon hovers around 65-75% CPU, EOG 10-30%, file-roller 20-30%. On taking a breath, Cinnamon jumps to 80-95% for another second or 2 then drops back to 4% CPU.
