Description
In the new symbology, when opening layer properties>Symbol properties, the CPU goes up for several minutes, and the system becomes unresopnsive. From the shell I get several warnings:
Warning: QFont::setPointSize: Point size <= 0 (0), must be greater than 0 Warning: QColor::setNamedColor: Unknown color name 'character_n' Debug: couldn't create image from "pastedpic_10102008_233747.png"

Replying to [comment:1 lutra]:
yes, I also noticed this recently on trunk/Ubuntu.
Looks like some of the new SVG symbols produce these errors.

it is possible to reomove this symbol? on slow computers the lag is very annoying.

I can confirm it too. +1 for removing it before the 1.6 release, as it makes the new symbology usage extremaly painful (on Core2Duo/4GB ).

Recently (cca 2 weeks ago) I have improved the loading time of the symbol properties dialog. Is it acceptable now?
Anyway if there are any svg files that cause troubles, it would be good to repair or remove them.

Now everything seems to work. Only opening the SVG marker list for adding one of them as a symbol level takes about a second, but I think it's acceptable. I'm closing the ticket now, please test it and open if necessary.

Tested, it works, thanks.
BTW: how could check which SVG symbol causes problems? Perhaps we should automatically check their validity before the inclusion in the standard set?

I've committed a further improvement in 34e9fc5b (SVN r14500). Opening symbol properties should be instantaneous now.
The warnings/debug statements in console regarding the SVG files can be ignored.
