as to the initial problem, i can tell (from
having watched top) that as
soon as digikam-trinity is asked to do anything at all -- display a
picture, open an external program -- it jumps to 100 percent or above,
unless the external application is ShowFoto, in which case *each* of them
is at 100 percent.
IMHO there must be some other problem. I have been running digiKam on all
my photos (several hundred GB by now) and I see no such behaviour (this on
two different motherboards with different processors).
Appologies if this is useless as I know nothing about gthumb or digikam, but
based upon the name gthumb (eg thumbs...) have you looked at an app called
Geeqie? I've used it for years and it does have a right click open in gimp.
