gifcurry icon indicating copy to clipboard operation

Application eventually crashed. Assuming due to memory leak? (it was idle)

OS: Manjaro Linux (XFCE) Version: 6.0.1.0

I had a 5MB M4V file loaded into gifcurry, then exported it as gif. default settings used.

As for the input file details: image (information was obtained from VLC)

For some reason it eventually hang. I had forgot to close it. Just as the system asked if i wanted to terminate it, the process crashed.

Similar problem. The OOM daemon killed it in my case. Here's the syslog:

The terabyte(!) of total-vm used is not a typo, but top will show a terabyte of vm used when gifcurry starts up (without opening a file).
