So just to follow this up, we are now seeing tracker-store sometimes
taking over 3GB memory on some systems, with poor consequences for other
processes. I wonder if this is a bug or whether its actually doing
something useful?

I'm also wondering if its sensible to stop tracker from starting in KDE?
I could submit a BZ requesting that they not start in KDE, but what
happens if someone runs eg totem or shotwell which seem to have a
dependency on tracker? Do those apps start the tracker processes on the
fly or do they just miss the tracker functionality?

Oh, I see someone got to the BZ nearly two months before me:
https://bugzilla.redhat.com/show_bug.cgi?id=771601

Does anyone have a view on this? Maybe we are just hitting a bug in
tracker-store and it would be ok to have it running if the bug were not
there?

Thanks.

Roderick
