--- Comment #3 from Maik Qualmann <metzping...@gmail.com> --- The QFileSystemwatcher needs system (kernel) resources, these are finite. On some systems, only 255 albums can be monitored. Also on a modern Linux system is ending after a few 10 thousand albums. Under OSX, he slows down the launch of digiKam by several minutes. Otherwise it can slow down digiKam, because internal file changes trigger an event. If you want to copy with Dolphin, mark files in Dolphin and use Paste in the digiKam window. DigiKam also automatically copies any available sidecar files completely automatically. Maik -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
