I suppose they use JPEG. FotoStation doesn't even supports PNG. 

Don't remember FotoStation database size and related numbers but for my home
machine:
.thumbnails/large - 13000
almost all of them are coming from digiKam - total size: 1.1GB.
After compression to JPEG quality 80, subsampling 2x1 - 147MB. There is quality
difference, especially after upscaling, but there are gains. Note however that
my collection isn't very big. When we go into 50,000 - 100,000 collections db
could become monstrous.

This rings true for comparable size of FotoStation db - they recommend 2GB of
RAM...

Current digiKam database with for those images: 17MB
