           Summary: use more than one thread for batch conversion of RAW
                    images
           Product: digikam
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: SuSE RPMs
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: digikam-devel at kde.org
        ReportedBy: sven.burmeister at gmx.net


Version:           0.10 (using KDE 4.2.4)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    SuSE RPMs

If I use Batch > Batch Raw converter to e.g. convert 50 images on a dual core,
digikam only uses one core and processes one picture after the other instead of
working on two or more at a time. The conversion of the batch would be a lot
faster if it would use all available cores.

If there are concernes that this would slow down everything else, it could be
used with "nice" or at least made optional, i.e. offer a checkbox in the batch
conversion dialogue to enable/disable it.
