In the past 24 hours, indexing halted at 13 hours and part way moved to 14 hours and stayed there.  In the middle, I had to restart my computer because of an update to my OS.    From midnight last night until now, the indexer was stuck at 20 hours.  I realize the only answer so far has been "be patient" and "this is normal", but I think there is something wrong here.  
If you are interested, here are my logs.  If not, I will just wait this out until the next drop.
