Public bug reported:
Binary package hint: slocate
When running ubuntu on vmware, using VMWare's "Shared Folders" feature,
the shared folders are mounted under /mnt/hgfs. However, entry is
visible in the mount table.
When updatedb runs with the defaults, and scans /mnt/hgfs the guest CPU
is totally taken up by vmware-guestd, and both the host and guest are
very, very slow, since vmware-guestd is not particuarly efficient.
I would suggest adding at least /mnt/hgfs to the default exclusion list,
perhaps even /mnt (/media is there already).
** Affects: slocate (Ubuntu)
Importance: Undecided
Status: Unconfirmed
--
updatedb scans /mnt (hence /mnt/hgfs) by default
