Hi Guys,

Indexing 5000 images, I have on my local machine with A TYPO3 
installation, also gave me problems. Indexing would freeze randomly or 
at least that's how it looked. Maybe I was to impatient to wait for the 
endresult, but nothing seemed to happen after a long time. I didn't 
freeze my browser though, but that's maybe because I am on a Linux 
machine ;-)
