Perkeep targets permanent storage, and using it for temporary working files
and backups might feel slow.

My setup: I like https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Rsnapshot then I
exclude (best effort) folders that I already have in perkeep or git. Before
ditching an old computer, I might .tar.gz or .zip some folders from it and
dump into perkeep, as a just-in-case while still not blowing up the perkeep
index with old and not really necessary stuff (aka "Maybe I'll index or run
in an emulator sometime, but not this year.")

I suggest you try out adding /usr/bin (or similar ~1GB structure) into a
temporary perkeep that you don't mind wiping just to get a feeling for the
speed with your current machine(s).
