[Digikam-users] Import speed, is it really that slow?

[Carl McGrath]

Assuming you have reasonable hardware, something is wrong with the install.
At least when compared to a native Linux install (SuSE 11.4 in my case).
I do not have DK on Windows experiencefor comparison.

While here, I will also observe that when importing from SD cards, USB 
is a significant contributor to normal delay.
I'll estimate that USB3 with a USB3 reader is 2x plus(faster) over same 
card in a USB2 setup.
