    Yeah, that’s what I said in my post. But my latest photo in the Photos app is from the 17th of January, so what has that process been doing taking 100’s of MBs of memory for the last three months? I have other random images/screenshots/etc on my disk but as far as I know those aren’t ML indexed.

      Sorry! I entirely missed that!

      But yes, it’s an inefficient and buggy process. I think it’s also what makes text selectable in images, which is why it is always running. Since we’re living through a RAM apocalypse you would think that Apple would find ways of making always-on processes more efficient.
