Default tracker-store and tracker-extract eating 50% of cpu time on a Dual-core AMD Opteron

In my case the problem would be that "morning scan" would be meaningless, as some days I'm in the middle of work at 04:00am and others I'm just going to sleep at 04:00am.


There needs to be a RFID wristband and built-in reader and associated IsTheUserReallyReallySleepingD system daemon so the system can *really* know when I'm sleeping and perform such annoying operations on my variable sleep time window. :-D

You could also detect system activity - something like "is the
screen blanked, and the system load below x". A simpler fix might be
to change when the daily cron jobs run. Pick a time when you know
you will not be using the system.

You could also remove the cron daily job run, and run it when you
are finished for the day, but you run the risk of forgetting to run
it before going to bed.

I think I know what is wrong with tracker-extract and I'll try to go
deeper debugging it. It's all about extracting meta data from PDF files.
For some reason tracker-extract is unable to proceed with data
extraction and leaves lot of zombies (last time I counted that was 130
after less than 10 minutes.) I have a log entries that more or less
confirm that tracker-extract has problem with some of my PDFs. I
excluded several directories from tracker in tracker-preferences GUI
tool and everything works fine now.


Other people in this thread complain about extensive CPU usage and to my
knowledge it is completely different story right now.

Suddenly after a reboot I find between 50-60% of my CPU used. I load process manager and find tracker-store and tracker-extract being the main culprits, with spikes of 90% of cpu usage.

This is a dual-core AMD Opteron server with 2 gigs of RAM.



Who' s the genius who thought this would be acceptable? and how do I tame these processes not to use more than 10% of cpu without uninstalling the whole shebang? (provided those actually serve a useful purpose that I'm not aware of).



Thanks in advance

You could remove these programs. I uninstalled quite a few programs - I can't remember how many - and reinstalled after a freeze. The OS will remove the extra programs and keep the system running.*

Hope this helps.
