I just don't understand why it works so bad on such a good computer and an average data load. Simple, Gary.
It's poorly designed and/or written, because it's behavior while executing is very careless, and consumes resources far in excess of it's utility.
Beagle runs as if the whole reason for having data on a computer is for beagle to have something to sort, rather than that the purpose of beagle is to index the data created and used by the programs that the user actually wants to have the computer for.
The thing needs a complete overhaul.
None up to now told what version of SUSE is used.
Beagle is a resource hog no matter what version of SuSE is used, for the precise reasons I listed above...it's VERY VERY VERY poorly implemented.
None is trying to start troubleshooting.
The problems with beagle are so self-evident that it's absolutely amazing that the maintainers haven't fixed it.
Just bashing, with no technical arguments.
Valid complaints are valid complaints. Bashing is making unjustified complaints.... and writing about beagle and how it is an unwarranted resource hog for any user who has a lot of data is NOT an unjustified complaint....it's an observation of fact. So let's stay away from the langauge of political correctness (characterizing a complaint as "bashing" because frankly, the software's current state cannot be defended by any person who is both knowledgeable and rational).
Kulkis, are you are doing this on your own time?
Yes.
I don't think so.
I just got home from Iraq. I'm on transition leave.
It is so fine pollution of informational value of this list that it doesn't appear as amateur work.
