OneDrive crashes

[TheEponymousBob]

I posted a while back about being unable to import from OneDrive due to the import screen consistently crashing. The issue largely went away when I transferred to a new iPad, so was happy for the report to be closed. However, since then, and having joined the beta program, the issue has never fully gone away.

 

Currently, I've found that I can consistently reproduce the crashes with my OneDrive photo library, but am finding it tricky to produce a minimal test case. It seems to relate to the number of thumbnails being loaded. I have a "2017" folder, under which there are about 60 sub-folders, with images in each. If I choose "import from cloud", and navigate to the "2017" folder, it will load a thumbnail for each sub-folder. I can then pick one, and import a photo successfully. However, the next time I try to import from cloud, when I reach the "2017" folder, it tries to load the thumbnails again, but crashes back to the base "import" page. Basically, every second time I go through the process it crashes.

 

I created a new root-level test folder in OneDrive, and uploaded around 30 photos to it. If I try to repeatedly import from this folder, it seems to cache the thumbnails after the first load, and I can import 5 or 6 photos in a row. Eventually, though, the cache seems to expire, and the import will crash while reloading the thumbnails.

 

This only seems to happen in Affinity. Using the OneDrive app itself, I have never seen it crash.
