How long to merge a very large Library?
I recently decided to Merge my 550+GB library in to a completely new, empty Library. I was having some issues with the old Library regarding speed, hicups etc. I did a complete series of First Aid fixes which included the Repair Permission, Repair Database and Rebuild Database before I began the Merge. What I'm concerend about is this Merge has now been running for over 5 days and early on it made fast progress. However, the last three days the progress bar seems to be stuck in the same position. I have checked the Activity Monitor and it does seem to be transfering informatoion. But I'm wondering if anyone has Merged a Library of this size and how long it may take? I should mention that my 350,000+ images are almost all Refrenced, with a small 1000-2000 photos being managed. I've a ttached a screen shot that shows the Activity Monitor and what the screen looks like. Hope there is some sage advise out there.
