I encountered this problem also with a large Photos lib. Removed the folder
from the config to fix it. 

I installed the new 5.2.1-01 and configured it with a local SQLite and pointed
it to $HOME\Pictures where my Photos lib is. It started importing, after a few
minutes it shot to 27% and incremented all the way up to 43% while the local
sqlite grew to 61Mb during that time.

After +- 15 min it stopped at 43% done, activity monitor reports it as 99%
usage & hanging / not responding and the sqlite db is no longer increasing in
size, stuck at 61Mb for > 5 minutes, the thumbnail db is at 76Kb. $iostat
doesn't show any significant disk access anymore so I guess it's dead.

Some stats on the Photos lib: 
170.000 media files in 70.000 subfolders (that’s Masters,Previews & Thumbnails
dirs together)
