Scan slowing down exponentially over time

using 4b
Im scannign 10TB of media files, mostly videos (in terms of size).
The first ~69 percent of my scan probably got done in 2 hours.
10 hours later it was at 93%.
Now, 22 hours later, it is apparently stuck at 99.7%. Two hard drives spinning at 95% disk usage, just to scan the last thousand or two files.
Why this logarithmic slow down? Should I just scan in smaller chunks to avoid this perhaps?
Also, is there a way to have activity on these threads emailed to us? So i dont have to come here to check if anyone replied?
