Zotero 5.0 High Hard Drive Activity

apush · August 4, 2017

Hello all, I have noticed that Zotero 5.0 seems to be constantly accessing my hard disk, even when not syncing. Has anyone else noticed this behavior?

It's likely indexing full-text content in the background. If you provide a Debug ID for a few minutes of the activity, we can check.

Thank you @dstillman, it seems to not be doing this much (if at all) anymore, so that may indeed have been the root cause. I will keep an eye out for it, and if I see it I will try to get the debug ID as described.
