Yes, cleaning old records if you've deleted a large folder is troublesome :-/

I suppose if it's flagged a file for content indexing and the file has gone by
the time the extractor looks at it, then yes, deleting the record is good. I
don't really have a feeling for whether 9 files a second is good or bad.

There's a Bug on this, yes Bug 488178

> Is this done automatically by the kernel,
As far as I know, it's a kernel thing... And even it it wasn't it would
probably be concealed within the LMDB database software.

> I personally use the tag search the most
I find the tag search The Amazing Hidden Superpower in Dolphin. I couldn't go
back to working on a system where you put a file into just one folder. Don't
know how people can work like that!

You can index filenames (not content) and get the xattr tags, that would be
fast. I think then you can enable content indexing and start the harder part of
the job.

> Thank you, Tagwerk, for the useful information!
All part of the service, and thank you for the patience :-)
