I have the same high-processor usage while idle problem with beagled, (so not the beagled-helper initial index problem). It's also on a laptop and it's annoying.
I don't think this can really be as designed as joeshaw said, because unticking *all* the boxes about indexing services, so that really it shouldn't be doing anything, CPU still shoots up when idle. Only killing beagled allows me to have a quiet-running laptop overnight. -- beagled-helper loads CPU https://launchpad.net/bugs/64326 -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
