Time Machine Taking a Long Time to Index

Hi everyone.
I first noticed this today.  My Time Machine is taking a long time to index.  It's stuck on "Waiting for index to be ready (100)" for about 10 minutes at least, it seems.  I did notice earlier today that it had to delete old backups to make space for new backups, and I'm wondering if that has anything to do with it.  I'm in the process of doing a verification now, but here's the code from two backups earlier today.
Here's the one where it had to delete backups to make room for new and future backups.

I'm backing up to a Time Capsule over WiFi.  This time capsule has a total of 3 laptops that are backed up on it.

Never mind.  Whatever it was, it's fine now.  We'll see what happens when it has to delete old backups to make space.  It's down to about 720 MB free without removing old backups.

    Hi everyone.
    I noticed this on the latest backup to my Time Capsule device.  I'm backing up over a WiFi connection to a time capsule device.  It is taking a long time to index the backup.  Here's the code from the latest backup.

    I am just curious as to why this is, and what I might do to fix it.  I did see one suggestion in another website suggesting diabling spolight indexing of the backup image with sudo mdutil -i off /Volumes/Time Machine Backups, but don't know where to type that in.  It then states to reenable it, but don't know where to type that in, either.  Any advice would be helpful.  I did run a verification not too long ago, and here's that code.

    If any of you have or had a similar problem, I'd appreciate your help.  For the time being, I may just disable time machine during the evening, and only have it run during the day when I'm at work.

    Is your sig still current (10.7.3)? Or did you update to 10.7.5? Because 10.7.5 had a Spotlight/Time Machine bug that slowed down a lot of backups. If that's what it is, there's now a 10.7.5 Supplemental Update that fixes the slow Time Machine problem.
    If it isn't 10.7.5, I don't know what the problem might be.

  • Time machine taking a LONG time

    I have a IMac with OS Mountain Lion, and I backup automatically through Time Machine to a My Book.  Ever since I updated the OS the backups are taking a long time.  The initial backup after updating the OS took 3 1/2 days.  It did finally end and then they seemed to be taking the "normal" amount of time, minutes versus hours or days.  The last backup has been running since last Thursday night, and today is Tuesday.  It is showing "backing up 3.21GB of 3.53 GB".  I have been writing down where it is at before going to bed and last night it was 3.20 GB of 3.53 GB.  At 1 GB per day I have about 22 days left.  That seems a bit strange.  This last backup had been taking a long time and I've stopped it once and restarted.    Is this a current issue with the latest OS?  Any suggestions?

    Ok, I was trying to check something else and accidentally stopped the backup that had been running from last Thursday.   I restarted my computer and began another backup.  It is running now and here are the messages from the "console" from when I began the back up.  It is still running.  It started at 213.1 mb of 1.68 gb and has gone up to  11.91 gb of 13.10 gb.

  • After formatting and creating two partitions on my external HD, why is Time Machine taking 25x longer to perform a backup?

    Hi.
    I bought a macbookpro 13"retina, new two weeks ago and a G-tech 1TB external drive from the apple store. It's my first mac.
    I performed a backup, using Time Machine, which copied 18 GB onto he 1TB external HD in around 20 minutes.
    After a little more reading, I realised I should use Disk utility to partition the 1TB external G-tech drive into a 250gb partition, and a 750gb partition.
    [My MBP has a 250gb flash HD. I'll use the other 750gb for storage of my other files, like photos, music etc.]
    So, using disk utility I formatted the 1TB exernal drive, then created two partitions.
    However, I've started backing up my data using time machine again, onto the 250gb partition, on the external drive, and its now taking 5 hours to copy the 19.81GB
    So why is it taking 25x longer than the first time I did it? [First time it took 20 minutes]
    Thanks

    Since performing the fist backup, a couple of days ago, which took twenty minutes, and the second backup, which is taking 5 hours, I installed MS office for Mac 2011 and Silverlight.
    Dont know if thats responsible?

  • Time machine taking too long (indexing)

    I run my time capsule to back up both of my computers
    a Imac 2GHz intel core duo running 10.6.8  and
    an Imac 3.4GHz intel core i7 running 10.7.4
    both are connected wirelessly to the Time Capsule
    Recently, on the older machine, backups have stalled. I can work on it for a while, doing disk repairs and disk permissions with the Snow Leopard installation disk utility and 'fix' it for multiple backups - and all is well.  Then it stalls on 'indexing backup' again.  Meanwhile, the new machine running Lion is just fine.  I just noticed it again.
    Last successful backup was 0517 this morning (EST) and this was at approx 1700 (5 evening).  I sat at the computer and was working away when Snow Leopard became really slow and I noted that the Time Capsule was indicating indexing backup, I let it run for 45 minutes and it was still indexing backup, so I quite Time Machine and restarted at 1845 (645 evening).  The restart of Time Machine allows Snow Leopard to regain its usual speed, Time machine reported a file count of 202 files that had changed and went to 'indexing backup'  a half hour later it is still at 'indexing backup'  (about 9 emails were received - how that relates to 202 files I am not sure)
    Why does it work multiple times just fine and then all of a sudden stall?  When it does stall it simply (over time I presume) eats up all available memory (1.5 gb)  with page swaps each one getting bigger and bigger until all memory is gone.  I can 'free memory' and recover to about 600 free (running email and browser app in the background) but the time machine does it all over again if I allow it to run.
    As I said, I have used Disk Utility (with the Snow Leopard Installation disk to allow repair of the boot volume) and have repaired the disk and repaired permissions - several times. (some disk permissions are repaired - no disk repairs reported)  After each time, I go back and restart Time Machine and 'poof' within an hour it performs a backup with no problems.  I note that backups are performed on schedule for the next few days with no problems, and then bingo, the system is totally bogged down again, and Time Machine is stuck on indexing backup once again.   I have not noticed any commonality as to when the problem occurs - sometimes after a day, sometimes after several days.  And meanwhile, the Lion machine is performing flawlessly 
    At the moment my kludge to work around is to turn off Time Machine so as not to use up all the memory and then periodically use the installation disk routine to 'repair'  (disk and permissions) and then backup, but this is NOT solving the problem long term of course.
    The first time I noticed this (about two months ago) the disk repair did note a disk error the system was claiming 2 bytes less free space than there was, but after that time, all the disk repairs report fine.

    Indexing can take a long time over wireless. You would do much better with ethernet connection.
    Maybe the hard drive is failing.. The fact that the disk passes tests does not mean it is ok. As a disk ages it can have issues reading, where the same sector has to read multiple times.
    I guess the ideal would be replace the machine.. it is several years old and really due for replacement.
    Or at least the hard disk... although the cost of doing that job might not be worth it.
    As a test I would do a backup using TM to a USB local disk plugged into it... that is good practice anyway when you are getting poor reliability on backups.
    You can create a disk image using a other tools.. CCC or superduper.
    A clone of the existing drive again can be worth it.
    You can set to boot from FW drive and ignore the internal.. see if the problems go away.
    Pondini is usually helpful although he doesn't have specific on this indexing issue.

  • Time machine taking too long.

    Time machine is backing up with an external disk. Its about 230GB but is taking more than one day and still less than the half. is this ok?

    Yes, I read, thanks.
    The excerpt says can be very very slow but dont specify how long. in my case more than one day.
    Not solving the problem yet. I gave up for now because already one day and a half and still doing backup (half of the 230GB).
    My computer is a 2.7 Core i7 with 16GB .
    If I wait the 3 days Backup that I see could take, for the rest of backups I have to wait the same ?
    I am copy like the old times, all my docs and folders.

  • Time Machine taking too long (OS X 10.8.3).

    To any one who can help,
    I did the regular schedueled backup on an external HD and it took forever to prepare the backup, and then another long time to clear old backups. It now says it has to backup 171.69GB and it's been stuck at 7.3MB for hours!
    To try and solve the issue, I cancelled the backup and did what many forums suggest by deleting de /com.apple.TimeMachine.plist but it didn't help much. 3 hours on the clock and still only 7.3MB. Please help, I have OS X 10.8.3, Mac Book Pro.

  • New backup to Time Machine taking ridicously long. Is this normal?

    I bought a brand new 1TB WD Mybook external drive to use for my Time Machine backups. It is connected via USB to my Macbook Pro 15" running Leopard 10.5.7. This is my first back up to Time Machine and I have only about 110GB of data for backing up. I have been backing up now for about 28 hours and the Time Machine status bar still says it only has backed up 864MB of 110GB. This cannot be right can it? Does anyone have any suggestions? Should I just continue to wait it out? Please help.

    It is referring to drives that use Master Boot Record (MBR) partition type, not GUID or APM, causing that issue. It then goes on to tell you how to reformat the drive for either GUID or APM for use with Time Machine.
    While the article does suggest one type for Intel Macs and another for PowerPC Macs, that really only matter if you are trying to make a bootable drive. Since TM volumes are not bootable, you can use either sceme.
    Regards,
    Patrick
    EDIT Whoops sorry about that. I read your original post and my mind substituted APM for MBR (as you can see in my reply here). But then when I re-read your post I see you were talking about Master Boot Record and NOT Apple Partition Scheme.
    Silly me!

  • DIAdem taking a long time to load 700MB TDMS file to data portal

    I'm trying to load a 700MB TDMS file into DIAdem ,4 channels 10Hz sampling rate over 4 days . When i drag the file into the data portal , diadem freezes up , its on a 2GB machine, file located on the desktop, not running any other programs and it went 50min without being able to load before i made it quit. seems to work fine on smaller files though . Was wondering if this sounds normal and if anyone knows a way around it.
    yin
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Thanks for all your input. 
    YongqinYe and Brad : I've tried defragmenting but this also seems to be taking a  long time (in excess of ) on 2 different machines. The index file is 300MB, so about 75% of the *.tdms, 
    Otmar:  i also tried registry loading the data but this still took a long time  on this particular file although it worked great on smaller files (5MB). 
    Brad : the file does not open in the labVIEW TDMS viewer  although i'm able to view it in chunks of 65000 using the TDMS importer for excel. 
    Stefan: the file does have explicit time stamp channel . 
    Any extra help would be appreciated but the way I'm thinking of doing it now is to use much longer buffer size (from only 6 to a few hundred) when collecting the data to decrease the level of fragmentation. 

  • Issue in updating large number of rows which is taking a long time

    Hi all,
    Am new to oracle forums. First I will explain my problems as below:
    1) I have a table of 350 columns for which i have two indexes. One is for primary key's id
    and the other is the composite id (combination of two functional ids)
    2) Through my application, the user can calculate some functional conditions and the result
    is updated in the same table.
    3) The table consists of all input, intermediate and output columns.
    4) The only way of calculation is done through update statements. The problem is, for one
    complete process, the total number of update statement hits the db is around 1000.
    5) From the two index, one indexed column is mandatory in all update where clause. So one
    will come at any case but the other is optional.
    6) Updating the table is taking a long time if the row count exceeds 1lakh.
    7) I will now explain the scenario:
    a. Say there is 5lakh 100 records in the table in which mandatory indexed column id 1 has
    100 records and id 2 has 5 lakhs record.
    b. If I process id 1, it is very fast and executed within 10seconds. But if I process id 2,
    then it is taking more than 4 minutes to update.
    Is there any way to increase the speed of the update statement. Am using oracle 10g.
    Please help me in this, Since I am a developer and dont have much knowledge in oracle.
    Thanks in advance.

    Sethu

  • Computer still taking a long time to boot

    I have a late 2013 21.5” iMac (Model: ME087LL/A) with a 1TB hard drive (5400 rpm).  I just switch from Windows to Mac, so I tried to keep everything as simple as possible on the transfer of files.  I had only added Kaspersky Antivirus and Western Digital Tools. 
    Boot times and operation seemed normal so I transferred my music, pictures, and some files.  My computer started running slow with just one user and started taking a long time to boot.  I found that since I added about 24,000 pictures to iPhoto, the Mac was trying to send all these pictures to iCloud in the background.  I stopped using iCloud for iPhoto and that seemed to speed up the normal operation once the computer is booted. 
    The computer still seemed to take a very long time to boot.  It would now take 3 minutes to get from turning it on to being able to use Safari.  I uninstalled Kaspersky Antivirus and Western Digital Tools using each company’s uninstallers so I know they are completely off the computer. 
    Any ideas on how to get back to the fast boot time?  I am only using about 150 GBs of the 1 T drive so I don’t think that is causing the issue.  What should I expect for a boot time on a brand new Late 2013 iMac?  Or should I try to re-install Maverick and try to get a fresh start?
    Any advice would be appreciated so I don’t feel like I made the wrong choice going to Mac.  I'm kicking myself because the computer was so fast when I just got it.

    Seventy one thanks for trying to help me out.  I really appreciate it.  Log is below.  You are absolutely right. Kaspersky and WD look like they still have something (as well as google??).  Is there anything else that stands out?  How would I go about getting rid of them?  Re-Install?  Clean Re-Install?

  • Why is this video render taking a long time?

    OS X Mavericks, Photoshop cc 2014, 2011 core i7 3.4 imac with 32GB ram, 256GB ssd scratch disk, 2GB video card.
    See images for layers setup, etc., and for export settings. Each 'slide' is a jpeg under a MB placed as smart object. Each lower third is about 2 MB placed as smart object.
    Render takes about 24 hours to complete. Why is this taking so long? I've tried this on other machines but they all take about the same time. Is there a better way to do this? Thanks, in advance, for your help!

    How long are the video clips and I see on at least one you have added a camera raw smart filter.   I do not know how a smart filter operates on a video clip. However if Photoshop need to renter a full frame for each video frame and filter each frame image with ACR then  encode the frames into a mp4 video stream it could be a very time consuming process  for nearly 170 thousand frames.  Have you tried encoding the mp4 without using the ACR smart filter adjustment? You also do not show the Timeline palette.

  • Intermittently nursery GC is taking very long pause time

    Hi,
    I have jboss application server running with JRockit R27.6.5 on RedHat Linux. I see that the nursery GC is taking very long time. Some times it takes more than 10 seconds. This causes TLA-fetch error for all the threads.
    High nursery time -
    [memory ][Sun Jul 10 23:10:18 2011][05730] 23340.903: parallel nursery GC 3270701K->3100453K (6144000K), 2740.705 ms
    Usual nursery time -

    This behavior is puzzling because it was working fine till last week. We have two applications running on this server which are totally different in nature but we see the same behaviour wrt nursery GC. This high nursery GC is happening even when there is absolutely no load on the server. It is happening every 10 minutes or so.
    Infact we thought that this is something to do with hardware and we replaced it with new but we see the same behavior on the new hardware.
    We have given 6GB RAM to one server and 3.5GB RAM to another server. The machine is 24 cpu.
    Thanks

    Thanks for the reply.
    I would expect fragmentation of memory would happen over a period of time. I am also facing this problem on other servers with large heap.
    But this is different. Below are JVM settings for two servers running on the same machine.
    JAVA_OPTION="-Xms${6000}m -Xmx${6000}m -Xgc:gencon -Xverbosetimestamp -Xverbose:memory,cpuinfo,opt -Xgcpause -Xgcreport -Xmanagement:ssl=false,authenticate=false -Djrockit.managementserver.port=7090"
    JAVA_OPTION="-Xms${3500}m -Xmx${3500}m -Xgc:gencon -Xverbosetimestamp -Xverbose:memory,cpuinfo,opt -Xgcpause -Xgcreport
    The nursery pause time is high right after the server restart. Most of the time its fine but intermittently there is a spike. Sometimes spike goes all the way upto 10 seconds.
