I recently shuffled a lot of files around on my system and ended up deleting some folders from Mezzmo and adding some new ones. Tonight I figured some library maintenance was probably in order. To say that it's going slowly would be an enormous understatement. I have a very large number of photo files and a significant number of video and music files as well. All told there are over 700,000 files indexed by Mezzmo.

The maintenance has been running for a couple hours now and still hasn't hit even 1% completion. It seems to be processing one file every second or two. At this rate it will be weeks before it's ready to run again. What the heck is it doing? At this point I'm thinking it would be faster to delete the whole thing and start over. The initial import finished while running overnight.

The CPU is a Core 2 Duo 2.33GHz with 3.5GB RAM running WinXP. Mezzmo is v2.5.0.0.
