[Digikam-users] Long database sync

[Henrique Santos Fernandes]

Noek,

I think database sync means that you will sync the metadata inyour database
to your files..

So it is going trought all you pictures and writing the data in it.
Thats maybe why that much disk activity.

But i am not sure about it.

hope that helps!
