Spotlight slowed down dramatically

robertrosa

Hello, 

Spotlight is dramatically slowed down by SAV. 

It takes 30 seconds to get search results displayed vs immediate lightning fast display before or after inactivating "controle sur acces" (maybe this is online screening in English). But inactivating this screening is a pity .

I'd like to exclude the spotlight index but I can't find where it is.

Could anyone tell me a solution ?

    It is located at /.Spotlight-V100 (and at the root of each drive you have mounted in the same location).

    However, IIRC, this is already excluded by default, and shouldn't cause issues even if it isn't.  Is spotlight still indexing your system?  If it is, there will be a dot in the middle of the magnifying glass.

    If all these things are as they should be, it's possible that our exclusion lists for French OS X aren't covering the same data as the English ones.  I don't currently have a French install to test on.
