Tags are stored as xattr, but indexed and cached in the baloo DB. The tags IO slave only searches the cache. I had a recollection that adding a tag in dolphin/whatever forced a basic index of that file. However, I can't find any reference to that anymore. My knowledge of Baloo comes from late KDE4 days. It seems I was talking nonsense.
