Bug ID: 375700 Summary: Digikam freezes for a long time (I/O wait) if similarity range is set too low Product: digikam Version: 5.5.0 Platform: Other OS: Linux Status: UNCONFIRMED Severity: normal Priority: NOR Component: Searches-Fuzzy Assignee: digikam-de...@kde.org Reporter: jens-bugs.kde....@spamfreemail.de Target Milestone: --- I have roughly 160GB of photos on my SSD disk on an Intel Haswell i5-4570 with 8G RAM (so enough horsepower). However, when I select an image and search for similar images using similarity search, and then set the similarity starting at 20% (up to 100%), the application freezes for almost a minute. While this might be technically correct behaviour, the user experience here is really bad. Please add a progress bar (if possible) and a "Cancel search" button. Maybe it is possible to perform this search in the background altogether (so you can return to the results later on)? Also, a warning maybe for similarities below 30% that they might take a long time to match would be helpful. Thank you! -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
