Bug ID: 454766
Summary: Importing an album uses only a single thread
Product: digikam
Version: 7.6.0
Platform: Other
OS: Other
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Import-Albums
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: roland.il...@gmx.de
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
I have a photo collection of 100_000 photos that I want to import.
Digikam takes about 1 week for that job. During that time, it uses only a
single thread, even though my computer has 8 cores.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Import a folder containing 100_000 photos.
2. Wait 2 days, then look at the progress.
OBSERVED RESULT
Digikam is still importing the photos.
There is no useful progress bar.
During the import, Digikam crashes whenever I click around in the timeline.
After a crash, Digikam does not offer to report the crash.
EXPECTED RESULT
Digikam can import a reasonably large photo collection in a single day.
During the import, I can already work on the imported photos, for example,
search for duplicates.
Importing the images happens in a background thread, it does not affect the UI.
Digikam does not end up as "not responding" even for a folder containing
100_000 images.
SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS
