Hi Marcel,
yes currently I'm working on 0.9.x.
For text I already have an SQL query that is able to filter my 3700 images in
the album in less than one second. But rating etc is still slow.
Right now it works as follows for text:
1. Run the query on the whole database
2. save resulting image IDs in LLongList
3. Filter out the ones that are existent in current icon view and LLongList
4. Display those images
This is really fast.
Also the general displaying of albums is faster now, because I removed some
redundant filtering (that was done twice and also when not using quickfilters
at all). If you click on a large album, the icons / thumbnails are displayed
much faster now. Before this, even with already cached thumbnails, displaying
was very slow.
But maybe I removed too much (:-)), because some things don't work the way the
should. For example if I assign a tag, the view is reloaded and the first
item is selected.
I will test this some more, don't know if I have time today. I'll also take a
look at the 0.10.x implementation, maybe I just skip the work on such a patch
if the KDE4 version is much faster. I don't think we need to do too much work
on the KDE3 branch anymore.
