I ran into a problem with tracker-miner where it seemed to get hung on a
single file (as listed in /tmp/tracker-extract-files.1000/) The same file
was listed there for several days and tracker-miner was using 100% of a
single CPU thread.

I do not think this is related to the original bug though the symptom is
similar. I'm not sure if I should add to this bug report or start a new
one. The problem file is not proprietary and I can submit it for testing if
that would be helpful.

This is on Debian 9, new install and running 1.10.3 version of tracker:
hbarta@yggdrasil:~$ apt policy "tracker*"

Bug#612242: tracker: Really high CPU Usage and Memory Leak

[Daniel Stender]

I have problems like described here currenty with Testing on my Laptop.
Every late evening the collection starts, making the computer unusable
for around an hour (2 TB harddisk). Even the clock display then freezes
until the process is finished. How can I disable that?

Bug#612242: tracker: Really high CPU Usage and Memory Leak

[Joshua Bowren]

I experience this issue in the Jessie and reconfiguring locales does not 
fix the issue. I tried removing all locales but one, but no avail. Any 
ideas how I can work around the issue? Removing tracker's configuration 
directories in .local and .cache did not help.

Bug#612242: tracker: Really high CPU Usage and Memory Leak solved by correcting locales

[Simon Pepping]

I had similar problems, which started after I changed my system from
i386 to amd64. I also had locale problems, because my .xsession
specified locales which I had not generated. After reconfiguring my
locales in a consistent way, the tracker problems disappeared.

Best, Simon

Bug#612242: tracker: Really high CPU Usage and Memory Leak

[Deniz Akcal]

Package: tracker
Version: 0.8.17-1
Severity: grave
Justification: renders package unusable

I was trying to figure out why my computer is super slow to the point that I 
have to do a hard reboot to have it useable again and I found the 
tracker-store process to use 90-100% CPU (I think when it
shouldn't be due to pausing or something) but more prominently I watch (with 
gnome-system-monitor) the memory increase from around 5MB to over 3GB! The 
uptime on the time before typing this was 16 minutes
and I had to kill the process so that my computer can be useable.

If more information is needed, just ask.

How big is your home directory? How big is your tracker index 
(~/.cache/tracker)?
Does it help, if you tell tracker to nuke the existing db and restart fresh
(tracker-control -r). You might create a copy of ~/.cache/tracker and ~/.local/
