If you're referring to the control center/application browser shell we
shipped in SLED, it doesn't use Beagle for the search.  It keeps all the
desktop entries in memory and filters them down as the user types in the
search.

You may want to try a newer version.  0.2.14, due out later this week,
has a lot of performance improvements.  It's always been our position
that if Beagle interferes with your normal system usage, it's a bug.  So
please use Bugzilla to let us know of any problems.
