I have similar issues with tracker on a MacBook Pro (Core2 Duo CPU, 2GB
RAM, amd64 arch).  When the miner runs, it will use close to 100% of
both CPU cores.  More critically, there are memory leak problems.  When
I am not paying attention to the memory usage, the multitude of tracker
processes keep growing until there is 100% memory usage and I have to
halt the machine.

I just killed a bunch of zombie processes that in total were using over
1GB of RAM.

Home directory is ~100GB; the tracker index is ~500MB.

I have not yet tried nuking the DB because I don’t want to encourage it
to start rebuilding, since it makes the computer so unresponsive.  I’ll
try it overnight.
