I don't personally know a *single* experienced Linux user who hasn't uninstalled or disabled it after figuring out that it's to blame for various problems (constant disk grinding, random cpu spikes, enormous cache directories, etc.).
I disabled it after experiencing how dog slow and resource hogging it is. However, I do index some of my files. For email I use mairix: http://www.rpcurnow.force9.co.uk/mairix/ For my working files and library, I use Namazu: http://www.namazu.org/ This is all done through cron jobs. Charles
