[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1855586, member: 396914"] photolibraryd is the process for syncing your photos with iCloud. Let it run. When I last went through a re-sync, it ran for several days before it finished but at the end all the duplicates were gone. photolibraryd runs with very low priority so it should not impact your general use of the Mac as it gets out of the way when you make a demand. When you let it idle, it takes up more CPU. So far, what you are seeing sounds kind of normal for being in the middle of a sync. Let it run to completion. It will complete faster if you leave it powered on overnight, if you can, so that it can get lots of CPU time and finish sooner. [/QUOTE]
