Bug ID: 499428 Summary: Moving of an image from one album to another (on remote storage) can take 20-30 seconds, where prior versions were effectively instant Classification: Applications Product: digikam Version: 8.6.0 Platform: Microsoft Windows OS: Microsoft Windows Status: REPORTED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Albums-Engine Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org Reporter: carbonwer...@hotmail.com Target Milestone: --- *** *** SUMMARY If I select an album, where the thumbnails are shown in the main view, a drag (copy or move) of any of those thumbnails to another folder/album can take 20-30 seconds. This is seen on an instance where content is on a NAS. This was not a problem as of a couple of builds ago. In evaluating what is going on, there are a huge number of reads/writes going on for a move of a 500kb file. We are talking 2-3mb/s for 20s. It seems likely this is an SQL thing, since I can add files to an album from my desktop with effectively zero delay, and likewise, move content from digiKam to my desktop as quickly. If the issue were file transfer or simple db updates for adds/deletes, the lag would be seen with these ops. It is only seen with moves within digiKam. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. drag a file from an album to another album. 2. 3. OBSERVED RESULT Significant lag in a move or copy operation. This is a disk i/o thing. Put a counter/monitor on IO and watch the number of transactions involved in an internal move/copy vs an external to internal move, or internal to external. EXPECTED RESULT Fast move/copy ops, where I dont see 10s of mb of disk i/o for a single file move of a 500kb file.
