Comment 2 for bug 126489

Have you tried what einfach suggested? I just indexed my portable 500GB drive which has way to many pictures, and the first time through did take a bit of time, maybe less than an hour, but after saving when exiting, the next time I went in, it started up normally and didn't go through the indexing process again. For the time being I am going to close this report as I believe this is the issue you are seeing. If it is not, then I urge you to reopen this report with any further information that you think will help us fix any problems. Thank you!
