+25I had the sane question as Tyler? What has changed for n your machine? Are you running more apps? Is something else accessing the disk a lot? Do you have significantly more files? I’m going to assume you are on the sane machine as before?
As an example, I added Dropbox to one machine and WSA too longer to scan because Dropbox was also accessing the disk often to sync files.
I would be curious to hear what support discovers. If you don’t mind, explain what may have caused this when you find out. It might help others in the future.

+25Mine doesnt seem to have slowed down.
How many files is it scanning? I scan a lot and currently it never finishes.
