ionice - set or get process I/O scheduling class and priority
  (make the acces to the disk of a particular program wait for other processes
finish their work)
nice - run a program with modified scheduling priority
  (make the usage of the cpu of a particular program wait for other processes
to do their work)
basically composing the command like that digikam will be the last to use disk
and cpu
you may need to install them and to launch digikam from the command line (a
shell)

Axel, this very much seem a system problem, more than a digikam problem.
you may be more lucky in the ubuntu forums, possibly
http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=331

try asking there specifying the kubuntu version, the file system used for
/home, maybe the digikam version, and other programs which are running at the
same time
