1.5 Scanning forever

[LorneCash]

The progress bar for scanning folders is about 50% done and just stops. This has been a problem as long as I've been using 1.5. The drive in question in this case is a network drive (from my Synology NAS). Is there a way to tell what file it's stuck on so we can try to diagnose why it's not finishing the scan? I thought it used to say the file name currently being scanned in the status bar at the bottom but maybe not, I don't remember for sure. I just remember that somehow, I was able to determine that scanning the content of PDF files was causing an issue so I removed them from the content scan. (I'd really like to figure that out to at some point).

Thank you for the issue report LorneCash,

I'm sorry to hear Everything is taking ages to index your NAS share.
