Hello, I'm not sure if this is a bug or a feature or it depends on my setup. I have a folder (/home/user/development) with about 61G development files, several projects, libraries, eclipse, intelij etc. The problem is, after each boot the tracker-miners-fs is at 100% and is mining and mining.... To test what goes on, I have killed tricker-miners-fs and started it with -v 3 option. I left the notebook over night on. In the morning the tracker-miner-fs was idle, as it managed to work through the complete folder. I have killed the process ans started it again with -v 3 And it begun again to index the entire folder from the beginning. But why, nothing has been changed there? Another point is the settings option "Index content in the background: Only when computer is not being used" But it does not work as expected, at least I do not expect to see any tracker process (and not at all at 100%), when I work with my IDE or do some other things. So the question, what does this option mean? Why it does not work as expected? Right now $ tracker daemon Store: 19 Mär 2016, 13:07:49: ✓ Store - Idle Miners: 19 Mär 2016, 13:07:49: 1% File System (PAUSED) - Crawling recursively directory 'file:///home/lado/development' 19 Mär 2016, 13:07:49: ✓ Applications - Idle 19 Mär 2016, 13:07:49: ✗ RSS/ATOM Feeds - Not running or is a disabled plugin 19 Mär 2016, 13:07:49: ✓ Userguides - Idle 19 Mär 2016, 13:07:49: ✓ Extractor - Idle 19 Mär 2016, 13:07:49: ✗ Media - Not running or is a disabled plugin but the top shows 100% of CPU for tracker-miner-fs I have killed right now all the tracker processes and started them with tracked daemon -s tracker daemon -f shows 19 Mär 2016, 13:09:55: 1% File System - Crawling single directory 'file:///home/lado' 19 Mär 2016, 13:09:57: 1% File System - Crawling single directory 'file:///home/lado/Desktop' 19 Mär 2016, 13:09:57: 1% File System - Crawling recursively directory 'file:///home/lado/development' and tracker-miner-fs is at 100%m crawling in the huge amount if files in the development folder.
