Only use one instance of scanning of exiftool #335

Closed derneuere closed 3 years ago

derneuere commented 3 years ago

We currently instantiate exiftool when a picture needs it while scanning. The current release seems to have a higher memory footprint which leads to a significant increase in memory usage.

We should load/unload the exiftool instance like we do it for semantic_search and places_365.
