There's already some bug in Maemo Bugzilla that crawler takes too much CPU, maybe you could vote on that and add a new bug about it taking too much memory too? Could you run the attached script on the device for /media/mmc1 and /media/mmc2 directories? It lists how many files and of what type (with what filename extention) you have under given directory structure. - Eero -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
