Hello,
My entire library was imported into Lightroom Desktop (CC). This now exists on one laptop and entirely in the cloud on a 4TB plan.
I have a second laptop that I have have Classic on. It is now downloading the entire library onto that machine via Lightroom CC / Mobile. This is roughly 1.2 TB.
The files are downloading and after about 30min - 1 hour the memory usage jumps from 1 - 3GB to 40+ (Its an M1 MacBook and it only has 16Gig of RAM anyway so a lot of this must be swap).
At that point it either crashes Lightroom or I have to quit. I basically get a message saying the system is out of memory.
Is there any workaround to this. What I am having to do at the moment is just monitor the progress and close Lightroom when the memory starts to skyrocket.
Also strangely Classic says it now stored 13k of images with another 7k in the sync window downloading. However the entire library is roughly 32,000 and that was the figure it started out from.
