baloo_file_extractor

Every time I turn around, this (or some other baloo program) CPU hog is running. I want to do a system update but would rather do it when the CPU use isn’t so heavy. What good is indexing your files for speed if the rest of the system is slowing to a crawl? Anyway dolphin file search is crap to me. It rarely finds what I’m looking for. I’m not sure what it’s doing. Regular? No! Regex? IDK. Am I searching for a file name or in file contents? I’m sure some doc explains it, but why do I need to be instructed for something as basic as search?

So I disabled it by adding the following line to baloofilerc in .config

Indexing-Enabled=false
