Hi Markus,
looks like it's a known Problem:
http://sourceforge.net/mailarchive/message.php?msg_id=11492713
...
One of the problems with current digikam is that the thumbnail pixmaps are
kept in memory for all the items in the current view. usually users have
<300 files per folder, so thats not a big problem. but with tags (and
espcially with recursive subtags), you can easily have >1000 pictures in
one view. if this number grows too large, you can easily run out of
memory. i have been trying to come up with a clean design to handle this
problem and here"s a preliminary patch to attempt that, which will keep
the memory requirement fairly constant by putting a cap on how many
thumbnails are kept in memory. the patch should apply cleanly against
current cvs.
...
None of the patches commited yet to cvs AFAICS.
Have you time/knowledge/patience to build from cvs and
try patch#3?
I'm still curious how many files you have in one album ;)

a koan. Profound to the user, unintelligible to the uninitiated.
You discover truth everytime you use it.
