If I have a large trace file loaded and change configuration profiles, the
"Reprocessing: all packets" dialog will pop up multiple times. It will open,
complete the packet processing, close, and then immediately reopen and process
all packets again. The behavior is somewhat erratic. Usually the dialog will
pop up three times consecutively, but occasionally it will pop up four times,
and sometimes only one time. If I keep changing profiles, Wireshark will
eventually crash.

I see this behavior on my Windows Vista PC with both the PortableApps version
of Wireshark and the regular (non-PortableApps) 32-bit version, and also on my
Windows 7 laptop with the 64-bit version.

I was able to reproduce this behavior consistently with a 35 MB trace file
containing 37,000 packets. It doesn't appear to occur as often with small trace
files, but it may be that the dialog is opening and closing too quickly to be
seen.
