Selecting many jpegs at once brings C1 to a halt

Permanently deleted user
So I'm trying to edit metadata on several jpegs at once and as soon as I try to select 10+ jpegs everything hangs and C1 starts to eat memory.

Anyone else has this issue?

    I'll have a look in the morning...

    I know that 10.2 was going bananas (over 5GB of RAM in a system with 8 ) just to render previews, but 10.2.1 seems to have cleared that up.

    Are you on 10.2.1?

    10.2.1 yes.

    C1 has been slowing down quite a bit lately which is sad because I just started the process of migrating images from Lightroom to C1.

    Hmm, I'm playing with 29 Fuji GFX jpegs and it seems fine. When I sync the metadata I see a 500-800MB spike in RAM usage, but nothing concerning.

    I'm assuming you do have more than 4GBs of RAM... right?

    Yeah, 8gb. Now I also have problems closing sessions. They sometimes get stuck on saving.

    Well, my mistake. I had accidentally enabled full sync on sidecar xmp and that had a severe impact on my system.

    But are you saying that is considered normal if full sync is on? I don't like the sound of that.

    It may be worth reading the Sync or Not section here .

    It may be better to sync metadata when you need to rather than have Capture One using resources to check it all the time. As explained here you can click the ... menu on the Metadata tool to sync it when you want to.

    Thanks for the links. Hummm. The way I worked with LR was I considered the LR catalogue to be the boss so I had things set so that changes to image metadata were written to the image's XMP sidecar. That way any other application had access to any of those settings but changes to them (which I never did intentionally) would not be reflected in the LR catalogue.

    From the help page you referenced the choices for Auto sync are "None", "Load" and "Full sync". Oops the "Write" option is not there. Am I reading that correctly? I cannot set C1 up so that changes to metadata are stored in the C1 catalogue and written to the XMP side car automatically? Note I do not want two way syncing since I do not want other apps to change those properties.

    The thing is the performance hit you take if you set it to Auto. But is it possible to get into the habit of always going to the ... menu and choosing Sync Metadata after you have finished doing some work with C1, before you shut it down? I don't know what others do habitually - I don't actually do it myself.
