Research direction

Start by reproducing the index update with a large photo library and record where indexing stops, then compare launch and subsequent search times. Inspect the app's indexing and model-loading paths; done means indexing completes without the reported crash and search performance or its limiting behavior is documented.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

I have been making heavy use of Queryable and really enjoying it. However, it recently seems to have hit some internal limit on the total number of images it supports. When I update the index it shows progress up to 4,900/total then crashes like it normally does due to the memory leak (usually the memory leak crash is at 10,000-20,000). However, when I restart the app the total number to index is unchanged.

I tried deleting and reinstalling the app in case my index got somehow corrupted. A bit over 200,000 images into my 300,000 image library the same thing started happening again. I thought it was notable that the images being indexed were different for the crash before the reinstall and after. Also, before the reinstall it had indexed about 50,000 more before getting stuck at the 4,900 index crash.

Also, as my library has gotten bigger performance has gotten quite a bit worse. It is currently taking about 70 seconds to launch the app, have the model load and successfully complete the first search. Subsequent searches take about 45 seconds each to complete once I hit search. (I am using an iPhone 14 Pro Max).
I assume this is due to my picture library size but if speed up is possible I would really appreciate it.
