LogosIndexer and Download

Is the LogosIndexer involved when doing an update/download ?

I'm doing an update at this moment, 38% of 2.75GB.

I paused the indexing when I started but I can see that LogosIndexer is still active in the background. It fluctuates between 0 and 98% of the cpu and it is still writing to disk.

This on a MBP mid 2012 i7 8GB w/Mavericks

Yes, it performs the downloads.

LogosIndexer can use CPU when applying a downloaded patch to an existing resource. It also appears that Mac OS X itself can use a lot of CPU at times when downloading a file. (Since this is inside the core of Mac OS X itself, we don't have a lot of knowledge about why this is happening.)

Also interesting watching the disk activity. The activity monitor reported that LogosIndexer wrote some 35MB or to disk. Hardly the 2.75GB downloaded. It doesn't look like we're getting the whole story.

For the record, the download and installation went off without a hitch over a wired connection. It did seem to slow down at around 9% and then again between 30 and 40%. After 60% it flew.

Thanks
