Comment 15 for bug 147756

Jamie, I have a clean Install of Ubuntu 7.10 with all updates, a 8GB home and 370 GB of other data. In 4 hours today trackerd was really close to killing my system.

With trackerd running:
             total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1035328 964824 70504 0 4048 321608
-/+ buffers/cache: 639168 396160
Swap: 2345480 629212 1716268

After killing trackerd:
             total used free shared buffers cached
Mem: 1035328 580892 454436 0 4632 336512
-/+ buffers/cache: 239748 795580
Swap: 2345480 229456 2116024

All the memory (1GB) is used, plus 600MB of swap.
There is obviously something very wrong here.

Is there anything we can do to help debug this ?
