Bug 112467

I can second this grave bug.
This would give a beta2 a bad taste cause album view is nearly unusable.
Any instructions to help debugging? Whenn running with valgrind I see nothing special:

does this happen when the thumbnails are being generated for the first time or all the time? 

(i can't reproduce this and a quick look through the code path doesn't indicate what could be causing this.)

This is all the time. I made a fresh install generating a new digikam database and delete digikams userconfig. But this did not make a change. Thumbnail generation is dead slowly.
Maybe an interaction with curred kde-libs (I use kde-svn). Does digikam use system thumbnail generation? Thumbnail in Konqi do work and cached thumnail are instant.
digiKams thumbnail do not work. You have to do scrolling selecting to force a redraw of a single thumbnail.

This happens always.

I'm seeing this 100% too.  I'm not a digikam developer, but I was planning on taking a look at this to see if I can track it down (or at least narrow it down some).

do all of you have kde svn trunk libs/components installed?

Yes, I'm running the 3.5 branch.

hmm.... looks like i might have found the problem. there was a recent change in 
the kio library:
http://websvn.kde.org/branches/KDE/3.5/kdelibs/kio/kio/job.cpp?rev=456969&sortby=date&r2=456969&r1=444172

the thumbnailer in digikam relied on the earlier behavior of the thumbnailjob 
object being deleted immediately on completion. i will have to see what can be
done about this

SVN commit 461900 by pahlibar:

in kdelibs 3.5, the default behavior of kio::job has
changed, the job is not immediately deleted on emitResult,
but scheduled for a deferred delete. since, we were relying
on the immediate delete behavior, it ended up causing the
loading of thumbnails to slow down or stop completely. correct
for new behavior.

can the bugreporters verify that this fixes the problem?

Works for me now!  Thanks!
