Bug Description
Binary package hint: digikam
When digiKam rebuilds thumbnails it takes up 100% CPU in very long time.
I think that it would be nice if the process that handles the thumbnailing is being automatically reniced to 10 or some other priority that is a bit lower than default. That way slow systems will still be responsive while thumbnails are being generated.

When I open a album and start a OpenGL slideshow, the slideshow does not run smoothly because the thumb generation process consumes too many resources. The only solution seems waiting until all thumbs are generated before starting a slideshow.
Please lower the process priority of the thumbnail generation process.
