dunno why, but my finder uses 2-5% constantly when running, and spawns a bunch of other processes (like mdworker) as well, which also suck away battery. better to keep it off for me.
- nicwolff 4y agomdworker is what keeps your simple Spotlight file search working ツ
- clairity 4y agowell yes (and also for backing up i believe), but at least for me, there aren't tons of files that i care about which change often, so i don't need it constantly going off and cataloging the latest homebrew updates or whatever.
- KennyBlanken 4y agoYou can exclude opt and any other directories full of frequently changing files you don't care about spotlight indexing.
- clairity 4y agoah yes, i should look into doing that.
- solarkraft 4y agoWhy isn't that the default?
