You could try watching the output of balooctl status Other than that you could attach a strace -e file or strace -e open to the baloo_file process while it is running. Maybe this way you can find out whether it has issue with a certain file or directory. You could also use balooctl config (hmmm, might be new) or systemsettings to exclude some more folders from it.
