(Get the code!)
If it doesn't crash right away, also try these things:
* single click the big JPG in firefox in order to enlarge it and show it in "100%" natural size... actually what I do normally is that I repeatedly click the image to zoom/dezoom it many many times.
* move around the firefox showing the JPG in enlarged mode, I've found that very often other windows in X get corrupted by doing this. It's like if the backing textures for those other windows has been overwritten by garbage and by moving around the firefox window with the big JPG a redraw is forced on the other windows and then the fact that they backing textures contain garbage is revealed.
* move around the firefox window while the big image is loading... you will find that the entire machine runs extremely choppy sort of like if kernel space is taking to much time and interferes with "fair scheduling".
