[ubuntu-mono] [Bug 64326] Re: beagled-helper loads CPU

[Eythian]

I don't yet know if that helps beagle's CPU usage (I suspect it doesn't,
but that's just an unfounded hunch), but an FYI for people interested:
the instructions do work on ReiserFS 3 (the default ReiserFS) if it's
been formatted reasonably recently. You can test by installing 'attr',
and using attr -s test ~/file to set something, and then attr -g test
~/file to get it again.

The problem with the CPU usage that I've been observing is that it'll
scan files (in my case, .jar and MS-DOS .exe files), and it'll take a
few minutes to scan each one using 100% CPU at the time. Not too bad if
you have one or two of them, but really bad if you have a directory full
of a hundred or so. I don't think this'll be helped by how it knows
whether or not they've been indexed.
