Why is Quicksilver showing a lot of disk writing activity? It reminds
me of
the recently repaired Spotify issue of too much disk writes (in the
gigabytes) despite not really downloading a lot.
Is there an update or patch for this? Hope someone can enlighten
me....
There have been a couple of reports about this.
https://github.com/quicksilver/Quicksilver/issues/2286
I can’t think of what it would be and I can’t reproduce it. (But
then, I usually don’t have QS running long enough for it to build up
meaningful stats in Activity Monitor.)
Off the top of my head, these are the things it would potentially write:
* Its own preference files in `~/Library/Application
Support/Quicksilver`
* Clipboard history (if you’ve enabled “Keep history when
restarting”)
* Catalog indexes in `~/Library/Caches/Quicksilver/Indexes`
There are some catalog entries that update frequently, but I think most
of those are flagged as “can’t be indexed” so they shouldn’t be
writing anything.
Maybe try keeping a Finder window open on one or more of those
locations, sorted by date modified, and see if you notice anything odd?
