Bug Description
Ubuntu 14.04LTS / Linuxmind Rafaela LTS AMD64
Tested versions shotwell 0.18. LTS / 0.20.0 from yorba ppa
Assumed function: Shotwell should be able to import photos and deal with larger amount of them by internal database.
Expired function: Above 10k of photos the import from folder or update settled photo folder shotwell go into a deepfreeze. Means that the knight rider animation for input freeze up, harddisk stop searching and cpu load from shotwell turns to solid zero. The shotwell window can now be wiped with other program windows, started from within terminal there is no stop or crash response. Shotwell needs to be closed hard by taskmanager, nothing appears in the console. As described this happens to 0.18 and 0.20 and renders the software useless for photo collectors.
