--- Comment #5 from Milan Knížek <knizek at volny.cz> ---
Sorry for commenting the closed bug:

@Gilles: So, do I understand correctly that the initial scanning of albums
actually scans the directories only? After boot, it takes some time before GUI
is shown (1379 dirs, up to one minute). Next start of digiKam is almost
immediate, I assume that the dirs are cached by the kernel already.

It probably depends on HDD and filesystem type, but yet, it would be good if
this directory parsing can be postponed to a later stage - the initial album
list can be taken from the database and it could be updated on the fly after
the directory structure is read.
