Package: tracker
Version: 0.6.93-1+b1
Severity: normal

Tracker defaults to options which maximize usage of resources, often leading to 
problems for the user (see #467270 for instance).

I'd very much suggest to change its default, for example in a way similar to 
the following :
$ diff -ibw /home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg-default  
/home/user/.config/tracker/tracker.cfg :
8c8
< LowMemoryMode=false
---
> LowMemoryMode=true
24c24
< Throttle=0
---
> Throttle=20
28c28
< EnableFileContentIndexing=true
---
> EnableFileContentIndexing=false
30c30
< EnableThumbnails=true
---
> EnableThumbnails=false
33c33
< DisabledModules=
---
> DisabledModules=evolution;
70c70
< IndexMountedDirectories=true
---
> IndexMountedDirectories=false
72c72
< IndexRemovableMedia=true
---
> IndexRemovableMedia=false

This would ensure the user is not bothered too much unless asking so.

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
