Thank you Nyall for the hint to switch off the esri file geodatabase driver 
over settings-option-gdal-vector drivers. Didn't see that bevor. It triggers a 
restart of qgis. Thats not nice but that will work.
I hope you are right that arcgis pro realy supports geopackages. Arcgis desktop 
10.7 does not.

Thank you for your help

You could go into Settings - Options - GDAL - Vector Drivers and disable the 
filegdb driver whenever you're not actively editing a gdb file. I.e. use the 
stable, optimised openfilegdb driver most of the time and only switch to the 
filegdb driver when you have a specific need to use it.

The GDAL driver page for the FileGDB driver lists a whole lot of known issues 
with that driver, which can't be addressed by anyone except for ESRI (as they 
come from the underlying ESRI SDK). I don't see any likelihood that this driver 
can/will be improved in the future.

In the long term, there's two reasonable solutions for this setup that I see:
1. With the improved Geopackage compatibility that recent ArcGIS Pro versions 
bring you may have luck in moving your arcgis workflows away from gdb files and 
to gpkg, which of course work great in QGIS and other non-esri applications.
2. If funding is available, there's a good chance that edit support can be 
added to the open source openfilegdb GDAL driver. While this hasn't yet been 
tested, the gdb format is sufficiently reverse engineered and understood well 
enough to make this a good possibility.
