Edmon,
I am not a digikam developer and don't know very much about Linux/UNIX on a
technical level, but I think that digikam just scans all existing images to
find out if they got deleted or changed since the last time digikam was
started. That would only explain about 35000 of the 64369 calls, but it sounds
quite logical to me.

Regarding the fingerprint database, on the left side of the digikam window
there is a vertical tab labeled "Search for duplicates" or similar, if you
didn't use this in the past it's highly unlikely to cause problems, because the
fingerprint generation has to be started manually. 

I had the problem that I closed digikam with an open duplicate search, which
caused digikam to load the fingerprints to the RAM every time at startup.
