AW: Dgk 5.5 very slow start

[Andrey Goreev]

If you are on Linux please run digiKam in terminal and watch what is showing in it on startup. I suspect digiKam is still creating thumbnails. It takes long time for a large collection especially if you have many video files.

Hi,
 
i have the very same issue.
 
DigiKam 5.5 with mysql external
Pictures are on a NAS drive
Picasa has no problems with this drive.
There are ~ 220000 items
 
Digikam startup takes ~ 15 to 30 minutes

Hello,


 


I have never had such issue before.


Was the process any faster on another system (what system?) ?


Are you using mysql or sqlite?


How many items are in the database?


Where the database file is located  (HDD?, its speed?, SSD ?)

Hello,


 


Installed 5.5 in Kubuntu VM.


 


Reading db in the start take now too long. More than 15 min.


 


I can see only uses 1.7 gb of memory out of available 5.8


 


Any solution?
