The database file is located at ~/.local/share/shotwell/data/photo.db.
You'll need the sqlite3 package to open it. There are graphical SQLite
tools out there too.
You might consider making a backup of the file first, just in case.
I still think this is due to Shotwell traversing your Pictures
directory at startup. One more thing you might try, from the console:
$ find ~/Pictures -lname "*"
This will print all symbolic links in your Pictures directory.

As many as there were hidden files, about 100. I deleted the hidden
files (which were residues of my earlier usage of OSX). Now, I only
get
the fist to messages and nothing else afterwards. Still 100% CPU
usage.

Do you have metadata writing turned on?
Just checked: no.
Where are your photos located?
All photos are in ~/Pictures and it's sub-directories.
Are they on your local disk, or are > they on a USB drive, network
storage, etc.?
They should all be on the local disk. Can I get a list of all entries
From the database? Then I could check whether there are any strange
entries.
I also switched off all plugins to see if one of them causes the
problem
but that didn't help.
