Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: tracker

Description:    Ubuntu 9.04
Release:        9.04
tracker:
  Installed: 0.6.93-0ubuntu1
gnumeric:
  Installed: 1.8.4-3ubuntu2

Tracker uses ssindex (from the gnumeric package) to index spreadsheet
files (.csv, .xls etc...)

When a spreadsheet file is large (>50 mb), the ssindex process uses at
least 5 times that amount of memory to index the file.

This results in a slow, un-responsive system, requiring the ssindex
process to be killed.

I have had to prevent tracker from starting up, as excluding spreadsheet
files in the index preferences doesn't seem to work either.
