Re: tracker-store and tracker-extract eating 50% of cpu time on a Dual-core AMD Opteron

I can confirm tracker-related problems on F16 x86_64 with latest updates.
Two comps: Dual Core Intel, i5 Intel
Laptop Asus U30JC i3 Intel
On every boot on of the trackers tracker-miner-fs or tracker-store eat from 30-80% of cpu depends of cpu architecture. It takes minute or two, then everything become normal.   
On every installation have GNOME3 and XFCE installed. Most of the time using Cinnamon/GNOME.
All trackers are from tracker package.
yum info tracker:
