[Shotwell] shotwell with 100k pics: somewhere between quite fast and too slow

[oliver]

If it is possible to create a gdb-/debugging-version
of shotwell, and if this is easy by just adding
a switch to one makefile, I could try the same
procedure again, so that the bottleneck maybe
can be identified.

Is there an easy way for this?

How would I make a debugging version from shotwell?

(Or are those issues already addressed by the shotwell team?
 Or is being able to handle about 100k pics not in the focus
 of the shotwell team?)


Ciao,
