Suddenly after a reboot I find between 50-60% of my CPU used. I load

This is a dual-core AMD Opteron server with 2 gigs of RAM.

Who' s the genius who thought this would be acceptable? and how do I
tame
these processes not to use more than 10% of cpu without uninstalling
the
whole shebang? (provided those actually serve a useful purpose that
I'm not
aware of).

Thanks in advance

In my case tracker-store acts like a fork bomb! After fresh boot I
shortly have a lot (about 50-100) defunct tracker-store and
tracker-extract processes each consuming about 5 MB of memory. I have to
manually kill them or I'm unable to launch any app form Gnome Shell. yum
remove is not an option because of dependencies. I confirm this behavior
on 64 bit box with Fedora 17, on 32 bit Fedora 17 all is fine.

I'm glad, I'm not alone with this problem.

Have you reported these via bugzilla? It's interesting that it's only
on the 64-bit architecture that this is an issue.

First, I want to make sure it is a bug, then I'd like to know more about
what this app does and how. I was also searching bugzilla for related
reports but it looks like there is no such error report so I'll probably
fill in new report. I just need to gather more info abut this problem.
Is this problem only noticed by Fernando and Me or there are other
people on the list suffering?

Tracker is started in your session startup, not via systemctl and you
can disable it if you want. In my case, I have it start in my session.
I am running 64-bit F17 using XFCE and have no issues with it (tracker
version 0.12.10). If I want to disable it I'd go to

    Applications->Settings->Settings Manager->Session and Startup

select the "Application Autostart" tab and uncheck the tracker-related
items.

Again, I have no issues and I'm running 64-bit F17 on four machines.
