--- Comment #13 from rb2005 <rbshs...@gmail.com> --- I have tested version 0418, 0425 & 0426. Both ver 0418 & 0426 seemed to exit cleanly in under 2 seconds. Ver 0425 was not working on my system, something to do with it tailored to sqlite I believe (some sql issues), and mine is mariadb. But this seemed to have resolved in ver 0426. For info, I disabled background face recognition scan in Configure>Behaviour tab, as I find the scan to kick in frequently after tagging a couple of faces and seemed to slow the app down a tad (haven't tested this in ver 0426 which I've just downloaded and not tested long enough). I hope this background scan can be changed to on demand and/or during system idle time as to not interfere with normal usage. I am also perplexed by the invalid escape sequence errors in my original debug trace. These seems to be caused by the "state=" lines in digikamstaterc, for example "State=AAAA/wAAAAD9AAAAAAAAB4AAAAOZAAAABAAAAAQAAAAIAAAACPwAAAABAAAAAgAAAAEAAAAWAG0AYQBpAG4AVABvAG8AbABCAGEAcgEAAAAA/////wAAAAAAAAAA \\.\\ISPLAY1=\\\\.\\DISPLAY1 ". I've tried to leave the "state=" blank and let the app repopulate the state, but again the escape sequence errors came back. But then it has not caused observable disruptions to the app during use. I also notice the face bounding box to be bigger now. Previously I think I've selected a face detection model other than Yunet. I hope the feature to be able to select face detection model can be brought back as the previous one I chose have tighter bounding box and not obstructing the view too much. Also, personally I found Yunet to struggle in detecting faces that are in horizontal direction or even upside down face in photos. To me, this memory bug can be considered close but I am not sure about Andy's. Thanks for solving the issue. Rgds. Rb -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
