--- Comment #22 from Kevin Dalley <kevin at kelphead.org> ---
I performed some additional tests, changing the tag name for a tag which
had over 1000 images. Then I changed it back again.

During the change back, I hit a deadlock, at least that is my best
guess. I'm investigating it now, attaching gdb to the running process.
Digikam hung up. I did try performing other operations while the writing
was finishing.

I suspect that writing that many images tickled a bug which had existed
before.

In addition to the deadlock, the intial change was slow, perhaps 5
minutes. Performing other operations was slow, but they did complete.
