[digiKam-users] Image recognition

Hello,

I was not aware that I had to rebuild the training database.
I have now done a maintenance --> Clean & update face db.
This seems like something that will take many hours on my collection.
I notice that DK seems to be only utilizing a single CPU core. I have 6
cores. Is retraining not a parallelizable task? Or is there just a checkbox
I need to check in order to have it utilize all cores?
