Fred, 

Now digikam (0.9.2) use libkdcraw instead an internal dcraw implementation. dcraw source code verion is 8.60 (instead 8.41). 

I have improved how the progress bar run in digiKam image editor...

But RAW decoding process can take a while, especially in 16 bits color depth.

In gimp, 8 bits color depth is only used ! this is not the same thing. Also, check all raw decoding settings, especially the noise reduction witch increase the raw decoding time. Use widgets tooltips for more info in RAW setup page of digiKam
