Bad news: unfortunately, the crash (and the memory hog) is back after only a
few days' time.

What I did was tagging a lot (a few hundred, I would estimate) faces manually
(i.e., a few hundred instances of some ten or twenty different persons' faces).
During this process, there were no anomalies.

At some stage I did the "Extras / Wartung / Gesichter finden" (search for new
faces). This scan made digikam crash after a few hours of scanning. During the
scan, it was fairly unresponsive, but usable - everything seemed to work,
albeit very slowly.

After the creash, and after restarting digikam, everything was (or seemed) back
to normal: digikam had found several new faces; manual tagging and so on seemed
to continue to work flawlessly for some time (and for, say, at least hundred
more manually tagged faces).

Today, the memory-related crashes returned: After (manually) tagging a face,
the memory footprint of digikam slowly starts to grow. For the time being, the
rate of growth seems a bit slower than last time - I was able to continue using
digikam for some five minutes until the final crash happened.

Best regards,
   Christian
