I have two Macs, a 13" MBP and a 27" iMac. My LRCC library holds 75,000 photos and uses 560GB on the Adobe cloud.
The MBP is set to keep smart previews locally and the size of the LRCC library in ~/Pictures is 38GB.
The iMac is only 256GB internal drive and so far I have not kept smart previews locally. If I check store smart previews locally on the iMac it says it needs 80GB or so....more than is available. (can't remember the exact number).
Is this simply because smart previews on a 13" machine are smaller than smart previews on a 27" machine?
Incidentally my iPhone and my wife's iPad use 110 GB to store smart previews for all the 75,000, which is a bit surprising compared to the 38GB LRCC library on the MBP.
Thanks
