Hello all:

I'm running on what should be a nearly idle machine with fast hardware,  but it doesn't feel like it.  My laptop has a high constant load average and becomes unresponsive. I think I'm running with default settings for this service, what would be the appropriate settings

Baloo is an indexer, and for some reason it may be stuck, loading the hard disk heavily and thus slowing your machine as a result. Maybe you need to kill it and erase its index. -- Cheers / Saludos, Carlos E. R. (from 42.2 x86_64 "Malachite" at Telcontar)
