[Bug 1544985] Re: Memory Usage explosion (16gb) with not-so-large (248k) SVG

Thank you for taking the time to file this report.

Based on the default style in the provided SVG test case:

  <defs
     id="defs4">
    <style
       type="text/css"
       id="style6">
*{stroke-linecap:butt;stroke-linejoin:round;stroke-miterlimit:100000;}
  </style>
  </defs>

this is a known issue reported before and already tracked in
* Bug #1533058 “Fills >8G of RAM opening a small SVG file”
  https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/1533058

The trigger is the very high miter limit set by latest matplotlib
as_default_ style for all stroked paths.

Title:
  Memory Usage explosion (16gb) with not-so-large (248k) SVG

Status in Inkscape:
  New
Status in inkscape package in Ubuntu:
  New

Bug description:
  On Inkscape 0.91 r13725 (ubuntu packaged), the attached SVG (which was
  originally created with matplotlib) causes inkscape to explode in
  memory usage, eventually thrashing so much that I have to kill the
  process (I have seen it go up to 16gb). If I limit inkscape to only
  6GB, then it will eventually just crash.
