Hi Morten, I noticed your blog wrt. turning beagle off as the first step; I'd love to gather some more data on that if it's possible ? My hope is that there is some pathalogical use-case that we can identify and turn off by default here. Any chance of some help with your use-case identifying the issue ? Here would be my first few suggestions: beagle-settings Can you turn off indexing Evolution mail (assuming you use evo) - clearly people tend to have tons of mail, and the indexing is for various reasons rather inefficient (AFAIR). Do you have lots of source directories in your home directory ? it's quite possible this is the issue, and we need to have some option to detect & turn off source tree indexing [ after all it's unlikely anyone would want it AFAICS ]. Also, I wonder if in fact you were hurt by the system beagle thingit that builds a shared index for system level files, AFAIR it used to run shortly after install, or the user process. Finally - in -theory- beagle should run at the lowest io priority level, and have little-to-no impact on responsiveness, scheduler allowing ( usually cfq, and though there are some tweakables in /sys/block/sda/queue/iosched/ that supposedly can yield better performance I forget which ones they are ;-). Of course - if you have some time to help find the issue ?
