I'm at my wit's end with Photos. Running Photos 1.0 on 2013 MBA with OX 10.3. It absolutely will not manage storage. It's keeping full-size images of everything I've looked at or uploaded through the MBA and will not toss the files when it gets low on space. As I am scanning and uploading old photos as part of a large project this is crippling my computer. I'm constantly getting startup disk messages and Photos isn't updating across all my devices anymore because it says my MBA's storage is full.

Any ideas? If I could manually tell it to keep a photo only int he cloud, like with an iTunes track, it'd be great. But I don't see that option. All I've read says it should be managing this in the background without my intervention. But it isn't.
