[Digikam-users] digikam 1.2.0 slows down

[Tim Jenness]

I have the exact same problem. I think it's leaking somewhere. I can rate
photos really quickly but after a hundred or so I feel like I'm walking
through molasses. I haven't tried 1.3.0 yet (partly because it takes the
gentoo packager so long to update a release).
