To triplecheck, after removing those wallets again, I created a fresh wallet while not connected to DB. Restarting DB and then Qt, it starts scanning history. Everything again the same, seconds before finishing it hangs DB and Qt. This time I got ever-repeating errors in Qt:
You mean the DB hangs even without any imports?
These symptoms happen with creating a new plain armory-wallet via GUI, yes. Nothing imported, neither the wallet itself nor any single address.
Of course I kept Armory offline when creating the wallet, so it would start a full rescan when being online, reaching DB again.
