Digikam is probably looking for new items in the collection, and/or cleaning<br>
the database. Both of these can be disabled in the configuration dialog, under<br>
"Miscellaneous": "Scan for new items at startup" and "Remove obsolete core<br>
database objects" (both are marked as "(makes startup slower)").<br>
