I have a lot of pictures (3100) that I'd like to process through "enhancement tool". But memory seems to be a large issue while I cannot deal with it and the only workaround seems to process all images by chunk (150) by hand!
Put all my pics on an external drive (4Tb), got 3100 pic to process with enhancement, at approximately 150 computer RAM begin to saturate, process does become WAAYYYY much slower (from 12s to 60 per image using a RTX3060) and then at 630 the free space (150Gb) of my main drive is saturated and I can't continue processing. Ligthroom is then unreachable, got to restart it, 26Gb of generated image have been in file name order (file (1), file (12), file (13), file (2)...) while the program show you the files in the windows file name order (file (1), file (2), file (10) file (11)...). Which means that I cannot take appart the rest of the files not yet processed (and capture order does not help since you do not choose processing order). So I have to process it by chunks of 150 pics and redo the whole of it.
There are absolutely no reason why so much data is kept localy and no options to deal with that!
Thanks for any .. changes I suppose or help whenever there may be! (gotta check lightroom classic)
