Hi all,
Anyone else seeing Beagle really kill performance? I have disabled it and my machine finally is perky, but every now and then, I find it in memory again. How do I arange it to chew up less memory and CPU or kill it once and for all?
You can't. It's one of the stupidest pieces of software that I've ever seen in my entire 27 years of computing. Even putting it at the lowest priority "nice" value doesn't help, because the damn thing floods the disk drive with a constant stream of disk-head seeks, which interferes with any other process's attempts to use the disk drive by making it basically, stand in line with all of beagle's worthless disk I/O requests. The maintainers for beagle should be taken out and kneecapped, or beat about the head with a police baton.
