Ran into an issue with the FTS initial index on my files.
I had a directory of files that all ended with "(YEAR)" - opening-parenthesis 4-digit-year closing-parenthesis - as the last part of the filename (e.g - "Training Manual (2001).pdf"). Whenever it got to one of those files, the initial index service would seem to freeze. Even after letting it run for more than a day on a single file it never progressed any further and would eventually not respond. The index would eventually force quit itself.
After renaming the files without parentheses (e.g. - "Training Manual 2001.pdf"), they indexed fine.
Before renaming, there was no error saved to the index log. There was nothing indicating that the parentheses caused the error, but I totally guessed that was the issue, and guessed right.
I will follow up and state that this is inconsistent. Most files with parenthesis in the name do get indexed properly. But a few have not. removing the parenthesis from the file name has resolved the index issue for those files. I wish I had more info to offer on this.

After Renaming (and indexing successfully):
