Hi Jean-Luc!

Then balsa begin eating all the CPU (AMD64 3500+), all the RAM (1Gbyte), all the swap (2GB) and finally was killed by the oom-killer.

I had a top running in a corner and I can see that the balsa process was eating the cpu and the memory

I can confirm that there is a problem with balsa, probabely in running g_spawn_async_with_pipes. As a test, I ran it with a stupid three-liner which emits with a delay a few lines of text as replacement of gpg, and balsa accumulates several megabytes from it's stderr... not sure about the reason yet, though!

Thanks for pointing me to that,

Cheers, Albrecht.
