Librecad won't start

I'm using Ubuntu 12.04. I've just started using Librecad. I was playing around with the import image function and used it to trace out a sink. I saved the sink as a block and started having problems. Although I've rescaled it several times, the sink remained 213 feet long which wouldn't fit on my kitchen plans.

Eventually Librecad would not start. It would come up with the splash screen and the hopeful message "loading..." In the System Monitor it showed Librecad using 50% to 100% of the CPU and the memory use continued to increase. At 450 megs i halted the program. I do have the system crash file at 18 megs that I could send.

Is there any command line switches that might be useful?

I've reinstalled twice, and restarted the system of course. Any suggestions?
