Note to self... Don't click 'vacuum' after right clicking catalog

ha!  @Chrisb222.  Apparently it works like a 'disc clean up' on your PC.  It removed "unused files". Mine cleaned up quite a few - I haven't experienced any issues with the catalog since doing it so hopefully it stays that way.  It's probably helpful, but I didn't know what it would do and didn't realize it was going to lock up Chief for a good five minutes or more.

Vacuum reduces the size of the User Catalog / Trash on disk to its minimum. It's something you'd probably want to do only occasionally, like after deleting a lot of things from your library.

Eric,

I think Adam was pointing out that it might not be a good idea to try to search for "Vacuum". ;)

Ha - with the way this new catalog works you'd probably think that! ha ha.  Actually, I tend use the right click 'show in catalog' feature a lot - saw 'vacuum' as an option and though - hmm, what do you do?!.... I found out.
