I am new to Shotwell. I got it started (from Linux Mint 11 2.6.38-13 GNOME 2.32.1) and I started Import - all pictures on my harddrive and an attached external drive. After 3 days of non-stop grinding (top showed shotwell consuming most of the CPU all the time ~ 97%) it showedd me that it had achieved 17%. That I thought was a good thing because the previous 2 days showed me nothing. After 6 days of grinding and my fans on high, the status bar said 34%. After 8 days it said 38% and I had enough of this nonsence. I killed the process and fired shotwell up again to find that it had imported only 2866 pictures. I don't know how many pictures I have on my computer, but if shotwell can only process 358 pictures per day, that's aweful and I hope you will address that in your new release. Since then, I have imported some pictures from some camera memory cards and in one instance it took more than 2 hours to import 14 pictures. That is not great.
Also when it loads it stops at 49% for about 1 Minute, then zips to 99% loaded for at least 3 minutes before doing anything.

If I click one of these all I see is Title, Size & Exposure. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2387311/Screenshot%20at%202012-03-29%2009%3A57%3A52.png If I right-click and choose Show in file manager the photo is in the right directory so they have obviously been read at the import with the correct date. If I from the file manager right-click and choose Properties I can go to the Image tab and there is much more EXIF data then showed in Shotwell, including the date. http://dl.dropbox.com/u/2387311/Screenshot%20at%202012-03-29%2009%3A59%3A00.png Bug perhaps?
