Well, now the problem solved with update. johannes hanika (2018-Apr-23, excerpt): > worker_threads=8 does sound high.
It is the default set by darktable if I delete `~/.config/darktable`. $ darktable [defaults] found a 64-bit system with 8069452 kb ram and 6 cores (0 atom based) [defaults] setting high quality defaults Having six cores I assumed that 8 threads would be ok. However, I've just monitored the number of parallel threads by polling `/proc/$pid/status`. With worker_threads=8 I get 69 Threads, with worker_threads=2 its still 33 threads. What's worker_threads anyways? Setting these to two actually solved the issue. I've upgraded darktable to version 2.5.0+333~g1f26b4f44 this morning. Now the problem is gone, even with worker_threads=8.
