Question

Optimizing Lightroom Catalog at 12+ hours

Hello,

 

I have Lightroom Classic and a subscriber. I'm optimizing my catalog, it's currently at 12+ hours and still going. The last time I successfully optimized was Aug and took ~1 hour.

 

My system:

Catalina 10.15

Macbook Pro 

2.9 GHZ 6-core i9

32 GB 

Radeon Pro Vega 20 4GB

Intel UHD Graphics 630 1536 MB 

4TB hard drive 

 

The processors are active between 77% - 180%

Lightroom Classic is using only 79.6 GB of memory

Swap is 33.75 GB of 35 GB with no page swapping

System pressure at 35%

 

My concern is the optimization is hung and thrashing without making any progress.

 

Is there something i can do or do i need to wait it out?

 

 

Regards,

DS

    Where is your catalog located on?

    Helps to show posts in date/time order, improves visibility (as not hidden in a reply to a reply), and is easier to use

    Hi There,

    That does not sound good, let's make it right.

    As the catalog is stuck on optimizing process, could you please let us know the version of Lighrtroom you're working with?

    You may try updating it to version 8.4.1 and see if it helps.

    Regards,
    Sahil
