I have some sort of similar problem using content.
Every time I open up SE, and I type something like content:"text to search"
The Indexing properties option starts right away, and it takes forever to complete, like 2-3 hours, or more!
I admit that I have a few Gb of data, but I limit my search to a specific path and folder. For instance, I have Tools\Options\Content setup like this:
Under Content:
Index file content. Checked.
Include only folders: D:\MyHardDrive\Folder2Index
Exclude folders: Empty
Include only files: *.doc;*.docx;*.pdf
Exclude files: Many extensions here.
Exclude not content indexed. Unchecked.
Exclude recall on data access: Checked.
Max size: 20 Mb.
I thought that the indexing properties would remain "somewhere", to make sure that SE doesn't re-index every time it starts. But it's not the case. So my computer is slowing down each time I start SE.
Any solutions?
