Maybe because Apple had the resources (people and money) to develop it properly and make it an integral part of the OS, not a tacked-on extra.
Next time you explain it to one of your customers, try this: it will run in the background the first time you start up, for a few minutes, depending on how many files you have. After this you won't even notice it's there and you'll be able to search all your files by content in an instant

Yeah, right. That explains why my laptop would become unusable/unresponsive for minutes at a time at periodic intervals with tracker using up 90-100% CPU while it did whatever it does. And that was not just at boot time - that would happen regularly, every time tracker woke up. I had to go hunt it down and kill it. Then I burned the corpse and scattered the ashes to the four winds to make sure that it could never do a Phoenix and rise again from the ashes of its funeral pyre. ;-) -- =================================================== Rodney Baker VK5ZTV rodney.baker@iinet.net.au =================================================== -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
