Well, I tried let it for 3 nights, last night with updated Baloo, not finished... :-/ My patience is limited... Now, it consumes „only“ up to 40 % of CPU and I/O lags are not so terrible (the computer is usable, but it is far from normal state), but it is still running. As it doesn't show any Dne So 3. května 2014 13:34:50, Jos Poortvliet napsal(a): progress (Other nice feature to implement!:-), I have no idea how long to wait... I have SSD for system and Seagate hybrid HDD (with 8 GB SSD flash as sort of cache) for /home. Also 16 GB RAM, i7 CPU 8x3.4 GHz. I have a lot of pictures there (including raw files from digital camera), a lot of music in ogg, thousands of PDFs and huge amount of weird (mostly text) files, like DNA sequences, huge matrices from permutations (I'm biologist) and so on...
Yeah, that goes crazy. They put in a few fixes, but as Carlos also pointed out, huge text files (any flat text file over ~50 MB) causes problems. Baloo will detect this and put them on a black list of files for the indexer, but the detecting is essentially a matter of noticing it takes too long and then identifying the file (taking even longer). So this can easily keep your system busy for a looooong time until it has put them all on the black list.
Actually, I don' think this is the only source of problems. As I see https://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=333655 there are more people having such issues and I don't believe all of them are scientists with very weird data on their disks. :-) Moreover, as soon as I don't need those weird text matrices, I zip them to reduce used space. BTW, how does Baloo treat zipped files? And DNA data DO contain words! :-D Well, I don't think DNA „words“ are more weird from point of view of index engine than texts in Czech or other such a strange language. :-D No, seriously, there have to be another issue...
I suggest you blacklist the folders with the evil big text files...
They are dispersed in various folders. That's why I like possibility to blacklist file types. ;-)
Again, some fixes are going on for this, but I'm not sure if Vishesh can really fix this.
Seriously, back in the time of openSUSE 12.3 I was using Beagle as search engine on Intel Celeron 1.6 GHz with about 2 GB RAM (if I remember well). With similar sort of data, it was working perfectly. Might be not so feature rich, but it worked. Id didn't make my computer unusable and I cold use all types of search I liked... Since than, changes are only to worst... :-/
Well, might be not so typical, but really so weird...? ;-) So, now the situation is much better than it was on beginning, but still not so good... Have a nice day, Vojtěch
