Slow "counting number of directories to scan"

[eejit]

I've just installed the fab EduSweep 2.2 on a new system which has something like 3TB worth of pupil data - so yes, a lot.

 

It has been stuck on "counting number of directories to scan" for 3 hours so far though, so should I assume the program has crashed or could this be normal?

 

It's only using about 9MB of RAM and 1% CPU, though "Resource Conservation Mode" is enabled.

 

Cheers

eejit.

Nope, it wasn't crashed/hung, it took 3 hours and 50 mins to go to the next stage.

This may be useful info for someone else later though.

I really streamlined this in the upcoming 2.5 release, scanning should start instantly even on huge directory trees.
