The benefit of nicing the crawler is that then it doesn't take the CPU from the other processes, it only uses full CPU when other processes don't need the CPU. I.e. your device should still remain responsive although the crawler is working. The other workaround (mentioned in Bugzilla) of limiting the crawling to MyDocs directory, is the one that makes crawler not to use CPU so often / much. The downside of that is that then the mediafiles on your MMC/SD card are not automatically indexed and visible in the Mediaplayer. You need to start playing them from the file manager instead... 10 minutes is a very long time though, does fsck report issues with the FAT filesystem of your card? If not, please run the script from my earlier mail and mail its results here (i.e. how many files and of what type you had on your card). Or even easier, just report: ls -laR /media/mmc1/ output i.e. full file listing for you card. - Eero
