Summary: make slow processing better
Classification: Unclassified
Product: digikam
Version: 3.4.0
Platform: Ubuntu Packages
OS: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal

On my netbook (or could be the same with large/big collections), on multiple
occasions, the processing could be very slow and the interfaces gives little
feedback to check if not crashed and make it more manageable, especially by
treating small files first and giving back interface/interactivity quickly. I
have time where initial scan takes hours and I can do nothing else...
Most of this stuff should either be default or advanced opion only/digikamrc
probably
- when scanning for thumbnails (initial scan, maintenance), option to skip or
delay at the end file bigger than X mb (default: 10MB?; if bigger, at first
start, check cpuinfo/meminfo and if small, offer to adjust or settings
checkbox)
- in preview/thumbs bar, if loading image take more than 3 sec,
infobubble/message "Loading <filename>"
- option to limit kio subprocess active at the same time: had time when
half-dozen kio_digikam* where fighting for my poor cpu... maybe a limit of one
or two per core, especially for Atom processor
- set process and subprocess to idle priority (cpu/nice and disk/ionice) when
minimized
Test up to 3.5 (lubuntu 13.10/kde 4.11.3 and before, macos 10.9).
Reproducible: Always
