Description

This project has about 900 raster layers and the rest are shapefiles. It is actively developed at present using older masters (313ec55 is the most usable at the current time) and 2.18 nightly releases (to run plugins that aren't in 2.99)

My computer has been running Xubuntu Artful beta for some time and has just had all the latest packages installed. I started off using master Zesty packages until they stopped working a month or two back and have just switched to the new Artful package repository for master.

When Qgis starts it will load a smaller project just fine, but I haven't tried editing any of the data. With the large project mentioned, it has stated there were 894 bad layers. 682 of these are raster layers, the remainder are vector layers from shapefiles.

If I click OK and get the message that it won't load the 894 bad layers, it still crashes. I saw nothing to indicate that the system was out of memory.

at the moment I am testing this release on other VMs with different OS platforms to see how they behave.

what does this means? modifying that default limit is not a "patch", is just changing a system configuration. And I don't think QGIS has nothing to do with it.

I still see invalid layer errors loading layers on some systems, even on Windows rom time to time. I know that there are still situations where it will refuse to load layers for no apparent reason.

the title of this ticket suggest is about opening large number of files. This is the same as #16049 Do you mean that there are cases where you have problems loading projects with low number of layers in it? If yes, how many total files do you have open in your system at that time?
