Hi,

dealing with memory usage, could you give the memory usage of digikam
related processes with following details:
- RES (resident memory)
- VIRT (virtual memory)

VIRT is memory allocated, RES is memory really used by the process.
Easy way to get info: use "top", sort by memory (SHIFT+M)

It could also be good to have further details on CPU usage: IOWait ? Sys ?
User ?

regards

vincent
