[Digikam-users] A modern auto-fix?

[Carl McGrath]

Gilles
I am running 4.0.0-rc on openSUSE, LC does seem faster.
In System Monitor, when running LC,  I see Digikam using up to 30% of 
CPU, which on a quad-core means a bit more than one full core.

Is there any config that needs to be done/enabled, or does Digikam just 
take what it can get?

Super!
