[Bug 250367] Re: Audacity uses 100% CPU on opening any file dialog

[Phil Ayres]

A quick update to this, as I continue to struggle through the project I
have in Audacity. I find that if I am editing and the CPU rockets, I can
normally recover by undoing the last change I made (Ctrl-Z), then the
CPU returns to normal. I think there is an issue when I delete large
sections of audio, although sometimes just crossing some little boundary
seems to be a problem.

When I have a damaged project, I've been able to reassemble all the
parts by pasting them in the order listed in the project file, manually
one by one into one complete file. The audio data itself does not seem
to be damaged. The project file does not look strange either, but on
opening it will force the CPU to 100%.

If you have the same problem as me, try the Ctrl-Z trick to see if you
can recover from an editing problem that forces up the CPU and damages
the project.
