For me, the apt-xapian-index cronjob used to crash a complete Xen domU (Raring minimal install w/ linux-vm, 512 MiB RAM, 1 vcpu, 1 GiB swap) on a weekly basis until I disabled the cronjob. Took me a while to find out why the domU crashed in such a timely manner.
I do not have this problem on other hosts running 12.04 Precise, but this one I upgraded to quantal/raring and the problem appeared. I have yet to try an upgrade to saucy with the cronjob reenabled. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of AC100 Team, which is subscribed to AC100_enablement. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/655831 Title: update-apt-xapian-index bogs down system Status in Enablement project for the Toshiba AC100 NetBook: New Status in Apt Xapian Index: New Status in “apt-xapian-index” package in Ubuntu: Triaged Bug description: Binary package hint: apt-xapian-index This is related to bug 363695 but is not a dupe - that has been "fixed". every time the update-apt-xapian-index occurs, the system crawls. Possibly related to the I/O responsiveness bug of bug 131094. The process is extremely intrusive, taking simple things such as flash video and throwing the performance down the toilet.
