This is a known bug and fixed in CVS.

There is typically a 60 second delay between the beagled startup and
when it starts actually indexing your files.  This is to let the login
process "settle down" in terms of starting processes, reading from disk,
etc. so that beagle doesn't slow down login by reading a bunch of files.

Before you do that, can you take a look at beagle-index-info and see if
the number of documents thought to be indexed is much higher than you
expect?
