Comment on Darktable 3.0

Comments

My biggest issue with Lightroom is that it is dog slow with large catalogs > 100k images. It is as if it kept everything in memory. Can Darktable be used to store the data in mysql or postgresql?

It uses sqllite. If you work directory by directory, it's fine. Most of the relevant data is in sidecar files. Apparently it can migrate lightroom meta data to its internal DB (haven't tried this).
