Bug ID: 507449
Summary: Do not allow running multple instances
Classification: Applications
Product: digikam
Version First 8.7.0
Reported In:
Platform: Microsoft Windows
OS: Microsoft Windows
Status: REPORTED
Severity: wishlist
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: digikam-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: cal...@outlook.com
Target Milestone: ---
PROPOSAL:
do not allow to multiple instances of DK - be default restrict to a single
instance.
WHY:
DK is memory and CPU heavy, asking multiple instances is asking for problems.
Other instances become lugging and freeze. Each instance launches its own copy
of MariaDB, possibly trying to access DB files simultanously.
If there are cases when running multiple app instances are desired, image and
DB access should be controlled across the instances, and the ""allow multiple
instances"" should be a configurable option.
REPRODUCTION STEPS:
- run digikam 3 times, 30 seconds pause in between.
- Process Explorer shows 3 instances are running.
