Again, I strongly doubt that; few people are properly organized (I'm not), otherwise Google Desktop wouldn't be the success it is.
If responsiveness and speed are the only qualities we are looking for in a distribution, then we should throw out Tomboy first because it slows down startup of GNOME considerably - oh yeah; and GNOME main-menu. Don't misunderstand me, I love Tomboy - but please understand that your own usage of a computer might not be the typical case. And, as said, there are features in openSUSE which have a much more negative impact on machine responsiveness than Beagle. Ultimately you have to decide whether you want a feature-oriented distribution or a slim and speedy distribution. SUSE has always tended to be feature-oriented, and that is why I am using it.
