Bug ID: 403866
Summary: Baloo seems to load the whole index file into memory
Product: frameworks-baloo
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: Baloo File Daemon
Assignee: baloo-bugs-n...@kde.org
Reporter: d...@newtech.fi
Target Milestone: ---
SUMMARY
The baloo file index seems to load the whole index file into memory and thus
using huge amounts of memory and crippling the system
STEPS TO REPRODUCE
1. Ask baloo to index your files
2. Check the memory usage with top and note the RES use of baloo_file_indexer
It seems to use a bot more than the size of the index file.
3. Kill it before it use up all of your memory (I killed it at 2.5GB RES usage)
OBSERVED RESULT
Too much memory used
EXPECTED RESULT
An indexer should use a lot less memory
