            Bug ID: 461256
           Summary: Baloo slows the system when many files are created
    Classification: Frameworks and Libraries
           Product: frameworks-baloo
           Version: 5.98.0
          Platform: Manjaro
                OS: Linux
            Status: REPORTED
          Severity: major
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: baloo-bugs-n...@kde.org
          Reporter: es204904...@gmail.com
  Target Milestone: ---

If you create many files at the same time, like you do when compiling software,
that makes baloo to noticeably slow the system down.

This happens despite using a brand new SanDisk high speed SSD with DRAM cache.
This laptop has an AMD A10-8700P APU, and 16GiB of RAM DDR3. No swap, no
encryption.

Choosing a different kernel edition (generic/zen), with their different I/O
schedulers (endline/bfq), doesn't make the slowness to go away. Selecting baloo
not to index file contents, the same.

I think this defeats the purpose of baloo all together, as it's just better to
have it switched off in any circumstance. It really needs to get easy on
resources.
