Thanks for that, I was able to reproduce some glacial speeds with that. > When I imported the first 250 of these images into a fresh database in > Darktable 2.2.4, attaching one new tag to the lot took about two seconds. > When I imported all 5,000 into another fresh database, attaching the same > tag to the same 250 images took about 10 seconds. > > I also carried out this same test in Darktable 2.0.7.

What I tried was attaching one new tag to the whole lot. It wasn't fun. I will investigate, but from a first peek it seems that we are spending a lot of time in sqlite3. So maybe some SQL queries need to be revised, stuff might have to go into a transaction or not be done at all.

As it's also slow with a fresh new database we can probably ignore that part. > -- > August Schwerdfeger > aug...@schwerdfeger.name Tobias [...]
