Bug ID: 427344
Summary: [Feature Request] Ability to configure (higher) number
of indexing workers
Product: frameworks-baloo
Version: unspecified
Platform: Other
OS: Linux
Status: REPORTED
Severity: normal
Priority: NOR
Component: general
Assignee: stefan.bru...@rwth-aachen.de
Reporter: philipp.l.kl...@web.de
Target Milestone: ---
As far as I can see, the baloofilerc config file doesn't offer any option to
configure the number of file indexing workers (baloo_file_extractor):
https://community.kde.org/Baloo/Configuration
On my system (up-to-date Archlinux), it seems to occupy only one CPU core at a
time. While this might be the preferred default on many laptops and office PCs,
it is rather limiting the initial indexing on a computer with a lot of files
and a lot of computing power. My machine is equipped a 16-core Ryzen 3950X with
Hyperthreading, so using only a single core for indexing means I have to wait
much longer until the initial scan is finished than the hardware would be
capable of otherwise.
So my request is the following:
Please consider adding the capability of configuring the number of parallel
threads / processes used for indexing the files.
