Hi,

I'm running digikam 8.1.0 on windows 11. Database is SQLite, there are
70.000 pictures (most jpeg, some raw, or png). Also there are 4000 videos
mostly mp4.
I started my computer. Actually, I haven't opened digikam yet. In windows
task manager is listed a background process "Advanced digital photo
management application" . Process utilization is approximately 30 % CPU and
on "digikam"  usimng  approximately  1-2% CPU . In past I had started "face
recoginiton" and also had started "Rebuild thumbnails".
When I start digikam, in task mnager it is also listed as "Apps" with 4 sub
processes. In Main Window it says "No active process".  Not all thumbnails
are shown. Changing albums is very slow,sometimes like "hanging up". Now I
close digikam app (menu), the background process is still running.
Now I'm wondering what are the running backgrund tasks doing. Is it "face
recoginiton" and "Rebuild thumbnails"?  Must I wait until they have done
their job and have to accept the high cpu usage?

Thx, Andreas
