[Leica] OT Lighroom 6 export problem

[Photo by Nelsch via iMac]

There was a terrible memory leak with 6.2 which seems to have been fixed in 6.3.  If you can, watch your ram usage while exporting (I use the feature on CleanMyMac which tracks memory usage)  I found on 6.2, any export slowly ate up all available ram and crashed.  Adobe said they were aware of the problem.
