It always annoys me, but baloo seems to be being an absolute nightmare

I tried to kill it and it appears to have just restarted. Is there a use

Do you mean use-flag "semantic-desktop" ?
(I have disabled it in my make.conf)
I guess I do. I've just disabled indexing as per Mark, and it's reduced
my load average from 12 "just like that". It's just an absolute pain in
the arse given that about the only KDE app I actually use is Konqueror.
But yes, I'll set -semantic-desktop in make.conf.
Why does all this crap default to "I'll waste as much of your computer
time as I can, and I won't tell you what I'm doing, or how to benefit
from it"?
In turning off indexing, I notice there's also plasma search. But I
haven't got a clue what all those widgets do. So I click on the "info"
button and I just get the description AGAIN. What's the point of all
this crap, if they can't be arsed to tell you what it DOES!?!?
Cheers,
