Spotlight indexing Photos Library Q
2020 M1 MacBook Air, 16GB RAM, 1TB SSD, MacOS 14.7.5 (Sonoma)
To free up space on the internal SSD, I moved the Photos Library to an external SSD. When I do this Spotlight seems to be indexing the external SSD endlessly. When I want to disconnect the external SSD, I get the “in use” popup message. I have to shut down the laptop to disconnect.
Is there something unique about Photos Library that makes Spotlight take so much time indexing it?
MacBook Air 13″, macOS 14.7
