Of course. And if they were the only documents on a system, one could indeed just use grep. But who does not accumulate a lot of documentation (and / or email, for that matter), whether part of the distribution or separately acquired, that would not benefit from being indexed and searchable, á là Beagle, Google Desktop or other document indexing system?
True enough. Howeer, beagle on my system doesn't seem to find the documents I want... I don't deactivate it because of the cpu it uses, but because it did not find the proper things, which is a pity.
I'll give it another chance.
For what it's worth, I use Google Desktop on my main system, which is running 10.0, and it seems to do pretty well. It's quite measured in its use of resources when indexing, though I have found it running uncontrollably at 100% CPU once or twice, and had to kill and restart it, which is obviously uncool. I've left Beagle in its default installation state on my 10.3 box, which I use for 3D applications and to run the server for the application I'm developing.
