Default Re: "Spotlight" with both PT 10 & 11 installed

I keep an OSX 'Stickies' on the desktop at home that reminds me to enable/disable Spotlight as I switch between PT 10 (3.9) and 11 (2.1).

The PT10.3.9. read me here …

Still says this …

Spotlight indexing can interfere with long record passes (97151)
There are known incompatibilities with Spotlight indexing drives while recording audio. If you will be recording to a large number of tracks for over an hour, set all of your drives to private in the Mac OS X System Preferences to ensure maximum performance. Failure to do this may result in Pro Tools reporting an error and ending the record pass when Spotlight indexes the drives.
