[digiKam-users] Very long processing to process 200 photos

[Maik Qualmann]

Longer than 48 hours for reading the metadata of only 200 images - hard to 
believe.
A test here with SQLite database (on HDD not SSD) and 500 images measured 15 
seconds.
On which platform are you using digiKam, what type of database are you using, 
where is the collection with the 200 images located, on a network drive?
