Bug 346097

When I tag a face, one of the following happens:
- Digikam hangs. The trace shows memory exhaustion
- Digikam seems to run normally, but when I click on any other thumbnail, it will no longer show the enlarged picture (with message displayed in a small box: 'failed to load image').

I am now running V4.9, but the issue existed also in the previous versions (V4.8 and V4.5). My platform is Windows7, 64 bits

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. start Digikam
2. my photos are organised in directories per date
3. select a date (Album) and pick a thumbnail without face tag
4. on the picture, do the tagging, add name

Actual Results:  
hang or 'failed to load', as stated above
Sometimes the tag has been applied correctly (to be seen after restarting Digikam), sometimes the tag shows up (as shown under the thumbnail and in the tag list on the right of the screen) but the box around the face (that is the position of the face) has been lost

Expected Results:  
no hang, tag stored correctly
