Can't open Dolphin or the start menu properly for a little whileMaybe it can be set up to behave differently. When Baloo is running it will use 100% of one CPU core. But I get the impression it's always tracking file operations and consequently causing problems.Isn't that something that I can do via settings panel?Balloons, even with Linux mint 18.3 still kills disk io regularly.. have a kee machine that is barely responsive? (I don’t have any baloo config file in ~/.kde4…) neither do i, lol.
Now I’m restaring linux and getting tracker running in 5 processes – tracker-extract, tracker-miner-apps, tracker-miner-fs, tracker-miner-user-guides, and tracker-store.
Nonetheless, I'm often finding baloo_file taking 100% of one CPU core. i didn’t notice the other file, baloorc, but i’ve found it already had the same settings.
Baloo is using 100% of one CPU core. I don't need any search beyond a simple "locate", so I don't run Baloo, but I'm a turbo nerd that knows the exact location of basically all files on my arrays by heart.If you use file search in Dolphin or any of the menus, maybe need textfile contents indexed or advanced search using complicated combinations of attributes, Baloo is a godsend. Here is what it assuredly causes for me:slows down delete operations in Dolphin, the wheel keeps on spinning and spinning, even when emptying the trash and for some small filesanytime I do a big file operation outside of Dolphin it causes lagging and unresponsiveness in whole plasmashell, this means simple things such as:cleaning out some cache with BleachBit?
i’ve changed baloofilerc in ~/.config. my mistake. Baloo isn't a typical package that can be uninstalled with
balooctl. File changes will be ignored. But down wallow in bugs.You probably want to at least disable file content indexing if you use an SSD, but otherwise I'd say keep it enabled.You can disable content indexing by going to System Settings→Workspace→Search→File Search, and unchecking 'Also index file content'.Why would you want to disable it if you use an SSD specifically? See also.
For me I really have to say I'm sorry, but the performance impact is just unacceptable and I consider it one of the main sore spots of Plasma. To ensure that Akonadi is not started, check that no applications require it at login. Other adjustments can be made directly to the configuration file.

But for the love of KDE, can't a simple "disable" with a "do not load" button be added to all that extra dialog space below the exclusion box?

Plasmashell is ruined, have to logout or restartcleaning out the package manager cache? I'm sure it has functionality that's useful for So far across several devices, installs OS's and versions it has never ever acted up or caused issues with anything - some claim it does and then I can see why they would disable it. But what I want to know is as a non-power uuser, what functionality will I lose from disabling baloo?My general rule of thumb for performance tuning is to not fiddle with anything unless it's causing a discernible impact.Baloo is the file indexer, so it will cripple file search if you disable it.

This is doubly true if it's already indexed existing files, since Baloo is idle when there's nothing new to index. This is doubly true if it's already indexed existing files, since Baloo is idle when there's nothing new to index.You can go to Info Center > Search and it will show you the indexer status if you're curious.My recommendation; leave it on unless it's clearly misbehaving in some way.Hey man, is there a demo for the next Plasma wallpaper ?I don't need or ever want what it provides. balooctl is a …
The Akonadi Agent indexes your mail (it enables a few things in kmail such as email text searching and autocompletion of emails from addressbook, for example).

I have a ton of academic articles and books and it's super useful to be able to search the contents of them. akonadictl stop. You will not able to do an instant search without it. ]I don't use baloo but then I know where all my files areI've had it disabled ever since it first appeared.
