I've been using f9 since it's release (and in rawhide for some time before that).
So, why is it that today, trackerd has decided to chew on my CPU?
It's niced to 19, but it's still clogging the system up.
I'm letting the process run for the moment in the hope that a quick response will allow me a more informed stance. ;-]
This process has been running for 139:40.64 in top and it doesn't seem to be getting anywhere and it's keeping my CPU scaled to 100% so I'm killing it.
Should a bug report be filed?
If you can manage to reproduce the problem, yeah. Get tracker started up again and see if it misbehaves. I'm not really familiar with how tracker does its job, but some irregular heavy cpu use is probably normal, it just should get its job done and calm back down.
