Hello,



each time I do a first search when opening a pdf, the ATSserver

process runs for many minutes, using 50% of my CPU, before I can get

any results. The following searches will work instantaneously though.



If I close Skim and then reopen the same document and do the same

search, I have to wait another round for ATSserver to finish whatever

it is doing (I suppose indexing, but I don't understand why).



Is it possible that my ATSserver or my Skim are broken somehow?



Cheers,

Probably not. This is probably the spotlight importer at work. Don't
know how this is triggered and why, Apple doesn't tell us too much
about the inner workings.

From previous debugging, I believe that ATSServer is also used for fonts embedded in the document, and creating/activating those fonts can be expensive. The Spotlight importer wouldn't help with Skim's searching, as far as I know.
