Hi rogstr, First, thank you for taking the time to submit a request. It's people like you who really help make digiKam better. Unfortunately, we can't limit searching by existing tags. We search for face matches using an in-memory structure that holds all the "signatures" of existing confirmed faces. The benefit is that searching is very efficient and very, very fast. The most time-consuming part of adding a new image and searching for faces has been the face detector and the extractor. The extractor is what generates the signature used for matching. In digiKam 8.5.0 we're introducing a new face detector called YuNet. YuNet is between 6 and 20 times faster than YOLOv3, depending on settings. I think this change will help speed things up considerably. Also, the new extractor/recognizer, called SFace, is much more accurate than OpenFace. This will significantly reduce false-positive matches, so we don't have limit the confirmed faces we're searching against. I hope you'll try digiKam 8.5.0 and let us know if think there are improvements. You can try a daily build of digiKam, but we don't recommend you use for production.
