    Hi busdriver, i kinda of think we should somehow try to reduce the numbers of files for syncing progress. One thing I like to do in my daily spare time is to check the files I got on my hard disk. For examples, I always liked to ZIP those old files (maybe thousands of them in one folder and subfolder) into one and named it with a pretty clear name. No matter the copy or sync process would accelerate a lot. 

    Not the best way to ur problem, just for a tip. Unless the CPU or HDD is fast enough, or this is the bug of programming, no really way to solve the indexing for a large amounts of files. 

    Yes Yi WANG - I've thought this for a long time, most syncing solutions I have tried (Dropbox included) seem to have trouble with large numbers of files.  My NAS has hundreds of thousands of tiny files which I think causes issues.

  2. I know this is an old post but it's the top result in Google for "btsync indexing"

    Has there been any update here - my 2TB(ish) NAS was stuck indexing for weeks so last week I replaced the disks and reinstalled and it's been stuck on indexing for 4 days now! I wouldn't mind put my CPU's are pegged at 100% so the box is pretty much unuseable while this is going on.
