My Lightroom 4 catalog is about 1.3GB (the .lrcat file). Is that getting too large?
I was wondering if I should break that up into 2 or 3 smaller catalogs before I upgrade to LR5.
Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I just don't want to hit the upper file size limit. I don't think there is one. I have heard of catalogs in excess of 500,000. Elie / אלי

According to Einstein the speed of Light is a constant, the square root of energy divided by mass. Elie / אלי
