Hello,<br><br>I use Digikam to organize my photo collection and manage all the photos, the main problem is startup time. I have more than 20.000 photos on disk. Well in fact I have even more if I include archives from last years. But I put only these 20.000 in Digikam collections.<br>
<br>When I start Digikam it takes _minutes_, if I just want to find one single photo I need to wait few minutes first. Or use different application like geeqie (I store photos as RAW files, but geeqie knows how to show them).<br>
<br>I disabled checking for new files at startup but still it takes lots of time to just read the database.<br>Picasa doesn't have this problem.<br><br>Is it a bug? Should I just put less files in Digikam collections and organize them by file manager instead Digikam?<br clear="all">
