Hi, I'm using tracker 0.10.x for quite a while quite happily on Ubuntu Natty/Gnome 2 and recently upgraded to 0.12 (now running 0.12.9). While it function generally fine, the performance of tracker-store gives me a bit grief. Even after small changes in monitored files/dirs, tracker-store causes minutes of heavy I/O activity which causes quite some negative interference with other processes. I do index a lot (~/.cache/tracker is 5.8GB) but i didn't change the index scope from what i did with 0.10 and the index size is basically the same as before. Yet with 0.10 I have not seen even close as much I/O.
Is there any way to tune the performance of tracker-store (or maybe tracker-miner)? 0.12 seems to have removed a lot of the configuration parameters which exited for 0.10 in ~/.config/tracker/*cfg, e.g., for caching and throttling. Did they move elsewhere, are they gone or replaced with some other tuning parameters? In any case, any tips on how to improve the performance is highly appreciated. -michael- PS: two additional questions: - Is there a way to index also bzip-compressed files? It seems right now compressed files are only supported in a limited form? Is there any thoughts/work to make a ``stackable'' decompression filter which passes the output to the standard miners? - Is there a way to ignore files or directories based on full (or partial) path instead of just the directory local name? _______________________________________________ tracker-list mailing list tracker-list@gnome.org http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/tracker-list
