I see. 0.10.4 is quite an old version I have to say. There have been 
many improvements since then. We were generally doing releases once per 
week for 0.10 for a long while and we're now up to 0.10.37. That's a 
long period of fixing between your version and the latest on that stable 
series.

There are a number of ways you can achieve this, we have a throttle, a 
startup wait time (sleep) for situations where you're booting and want 
Tracker to be launched later for quick boots and in recent 0.12 versions 
we make use of SCHED_IDLE too.

Which configuration did you try changing here?

I would really suggest upgrading to the latest 0.10 release or 0.12 if 
possible. At least testing that may show significant improvements.
