It happens every time.
Every time I turn on my computer Logos indexes for 10 minutes. Is this normal? It happens every time.
I don't know. It does not happen to me when I fire up Version 4 several times a day. I almost NEVER turn off my computer so maybe Logos does some of that maintenance in the background. We Linux users would see who could go the longest without a reboot. Some went for years. Windows users used to reboot hourly because of crashes.
This raises a question: Is it recommended to reboot regularly for Version 4's benefit? If I do it now will it index for hours playing make-up?

With A4 mine was doing the same thing. From what I could gather, the indexer was just crashing out and never finishing. Hence it would try again the next time I would turn on my computer.

I almost never reboot either, and I'm a Windows user. Maybe I have to reboot once few weeks. However, I've begun to rethink my habits on this (I'm lazy and don't want to wait for it to boot up, but that's not a good enough reason). There used to be debates going around about whether it was better for your computer to keep it on all the time (so it didn't have to experience the power surge of startup as frequently) or shut it down when not in use to save wear-and-tear on the hard disk and fan. There were supporters on both sides of the argument, and I don't think anyone ever demonstrated conclusively which side was right. However, now there is an additional factor to consider which is more in the forefront of people's minds, and that is the environmental impact of leaving it on all the time. Most computers are made robustly enough now that it won't matter to its lifespan whether you shut it down when not in use or leave it on all the time. In fact you're probably more likely to run into a need to upgrade to a new more powerful computer before your old one dies due to overuse. So the operative question is: does a computer use more energy in starting up fresh each morning, or staying on all the time? Some would argue that it doesn't matter because it draws a miniscule amount of electricity anyway. But there are more than 1 billion PCs in the world now, perhaps even more than 2 billion. So all that energy use adds up. Anybody know the answer to that "operative question"?
