Re: Infinite Loop in CAM::PDF
Not an infinite loop, nor a memory leak, just a memory hog. It needs about 4.9 GB to run to completion, taking almost 2 minutes on a Core i7 @ 2.67 GHz using 64-bit Ubuntu. The while loop in _parseBlocks() in CAM::PDF::Content.pm builds a very big list as it processes this 4 MB PDF file.
