[Bug 111489] Re: gwget fills up all available memory

[LoRaK]

So I downloaded (https://launchpad.net/%7Eari-tczew/+archive/ppa/+files/gwget_1.0.1-0ubuntu3_amd64.deb)
and installed it on jaunty, but it's behavior (as well as that of the official package) just got worse.

Now as soon as I add a file (~60 MB) to download the memory usage
skyrockets at the speed of ~500 megabytes/sec and soon freezes the
system (and I mean power-button-freeze :)

This was done on a 64bit Jaunty upgraded from Intrepid.

I'd like to mention, that although I "purge"-d the packages when
removing (as I tried installing several times) configuration data still
remained and I had to find and delete it manually. I was led to believe
that purge completely removes a package, config files included. Am I
wrong?
