Bug description:
  This is a new bug in karmic, not present in jaunty.

  I have a 6mb pdf file which consists of scanned pages. I try to attach
  it to an e-mail in evolution but it becomes unresponsive and top shows
  it's taking up to 600mb and growing. The same does not happen with 6mb
  of random data (courtesy of /dev/urandom). I am not going to attach
  the file here since it is copyrighted material, but I can surely
  provide the file privately to whoever needs it for debugging purposes.

  Update: the same happens with a 900k zip file, again I can't post it
  here but can send it privately. This time there are no huge scanned
  pdfs involved but there still are pdfs in the zip file.
