The build_hd_index process is spiking! What to do?!?! In an Xsan
environment where you have a number of clients and Apple Remote Desktop is running on an administrative computer, the Application Usage Data and User Accounting Data collectors can cause the build_hd_index process to run more often than is needed (okay so spiking is a bit extreme but a dropped frame once every couple of days is the end of the world to some people), especially in cases where you don’t actually use the collected data for business intelligence. If you do a Get Info on a computer in Remote Desktop you can uncheck Collect Application Usage Data and Collect User Accounting Data, which will free it all up. Here’s the trickeration (too much ESPN, sorry about that), you have to do this on all computers that run Remote Desktop since it’s the app that stores the settings.
