*Any* user friendly indexing software should be smart enough to start
indexing if there is *no* user activities. What do you think normal user
do if it jast start the laptop to check emails bat can't just because
tracker kill all *IO* not a CPU.

I'm not using source in my /home/ at all, but i have a lot of email and
other 50G of *.odf *.ogg *.jpg ... what should be indexed, so you try to
explain me i'm not "smart enough" "dev" to just black list may /home/path.

OK. May be i am. So i'm just stupid user who can't adapt own life to one
 rely smart tracker. You mean i need to wait about 15 min after ubuntu
start to check emails or start firefox...

how many "ordinary users" use gutsy now?! all user i have in my network
use feisty and just little sad if ubuntu.com trying new *beta* software
on them... not really better what microsoft do. So i trying my best and
 trying test this software as normal user or users i can and i can say,
*all* this normal user will have the same issue i have.

There is no sense to continue this discussion... i'm happy to hear you
working to improve it. So i thank you for your work but don't ever try
me to explain how "smart" am i, i can explain you about you the same.
