Trying to use Digikam for Windows was proven to be impossible. Immediately
after opening the software for the first time, all the CPU cores were taken my
WMI provider service processes. The load did come off, a few minutes after
closing every Digikam window.

This seems to be posted already as a Amarok bug, which it certainly is not:
https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=306994

With Digikam, there however spawned several WPI processes making even a
multi-core system unresponsible.



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. Install the current stable Digikam for Windows.
2. Launch it.
Actual Results:  
The system could not be used due to extremely high CPU load on every CPU core.

Expected Results:  
I should have been able to use Digikam.

The Amarok developers requested some information on hard disk drives, so here
are the controllers and the devices attached to them.

- Intel ICH9 south bridge's serial ata controller
  - Samsung SSD 830
  - Western Digital WDC6400AAKS HDD
  - Samsung HD154UI HDD
  - Hitachi-LG DVD-RW drive

- JMicron JMB36X serial ata controller
  - Samsung HD642JJ HDD

- a no-name USB card reader
