I have yet to see anyone say "it doesn't consume resources anymore but I still don't want it". Every comment I have seen indicates that they have never let it run to completion on the initial scan. If I am unfairly generalizing, please do speak up. I would love to hear "I have a scanned database, it doesn't consume large amounts of resources, but I still don't want it, I want to find my things manually"
Might depend on what you mean by manually. I don't store all my files in the root of "My Documents". I have functionally named subdirs and subdirs of subdirs as deep as need be. Since I'm not in the GUI most of the time I'm doing file management, fancy GUI indexers are of little use, while the search functions built into the OFM I'm already using works well enough to supplement my non-removable organic DB while navigating the subdir system in place. Even while in X I always have an OFM instance running in Konsole, which is the first (and only) place I think to go to look for something whose name or location does not immediately spring to mind on need. -- "The wise are known for their understanding, and pleasant words are persuasive."
