--- Comment #9 from garfer <garfer1...@gmail.com> --- i've been compiling several versions of digikam trying to find the point at which this started happening and i've narrowed down to the commits made on Sep 29 2024 and all i can say with certainty is that on my systems commit b2981ed4 is several times faster at finding duplicates than commit a07cfdb7 i suspect commit f41fde1d "Progress Manager - Find duplicates : show current item thumbnails, name, and album path. " of being the cause of the degradation in performance in case that this turns out to be the issue (i'm not familiar at all with C++ or digikam's codebase) and since this commit was made in response to a feature request (375521) meaning it could be considered a feature and not a bug i'd like to submit a request for the addition of an option to turn this feature off given the possible impact that it can have both in performance and HDD degradation, at least on certain setups -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
