Dear Eero, First off, thanks for such a wonderful device and developer community. I have had my N800 for 5 days and have been loving every minute of playing with it. Can metalayer-crawler be niced so as to not impact performance of the system? I just loaded a 2GB SD card full of music and the entire system was unresponsive for around 5 minutes.
