I now just import (add only) and set up my files that I will be working with and then when I am done, I just delete the whole LR catalog.
Keep in mind I have a system of keywording with Photo Mechanic (which puts the keywords in the file rather than sidecar files), ingest into my archive app - Media Pro (now holding more than 140,000 files that are all keyworded and searches in seconds) - and then generally use Bridge to select etc and then ACR, then usually Photoshop with lots of plugins to work the file.
I tried to find a way that usefully added LR to the mix, but it was the catalog issue that put me off - some of the features are great but I am back to using it only to finalize my blurb books at the moment.
