I'm migrating from LrC to Lr, but the process is taking days. It's been at 81% complete for over 48 hours. It's at the "Adding Faces" stage.  I'm migrating about 200GB of data which is about 34,000 photos and videos.  Should I leave it running?  And if so, how long should I expect it to take.  Or has it crashed?

I migrated about 25K images and 600GB of data. It usually ran in roughly 12 hours, however a few times it did take around a day. (I did a number of migrations as I worked out all sorts of issues).

If using Windows, I would start with the task manager and check what resources Lr is consuming. e.g. is it using a lot of netowork, or a lot of CPU....

If on a Mac, you will need to web search it. My Mac knowledge is a decade out of date.
