How does this save space if you are copying loads of photos and not deleting them from the “master” catalog? Isn’t that creating a load of redundant data, especially if you already have a backup drive?
As far as saving time, is re-launching LR every time you want to access a specific catalog more efficient? How much faster does Lightroom run with a smaller catalog?
