OK, I need to moderate my previous comment. It looks like nautilus is
not using tracker even when it is installed (and where beagle is not
installed) and is simply performing an unindexed search on filename
(this explains the slow speed). I need to check this on the machine with
beagle.

There is a real problem here. One two machines, one with beagle
installed and the other with tracker, the beagle-search-tool and
tracker-search-tool respectively return their results on a word (my
surname say) in no more than one or two seconds, returning ~70 odd
documents. If I do ctrlF and
the CPU speed and the memory doesn't change a lot, the search look on
the disk, how many datas do you have?

Do you use the special or the browser mode? Are you sure you selected
that directory for the search? Do you have beagle installed?

What do you mean by 'selected'?
I am in the folder I want to search when I do Ctrl-F.
I don't know about beagle.

Ok.
I have my ~/Pictures folder open. It contains about 6 images, and a subfolder
Backgrounds which contains two images.
I hit CTRL-F from this folder, and type a word that I can see is contained in
one of the image filenames.
After 5 minutes I got results, but these are from ALL of my home
How long should I expect to wait for search to produce results?
I have an Athlon 3000+ with 1GB of memory.
Please reopen this.

In my home folder, or in total?
Where does the search begin looking?
Shouldn't it produce some sort of result as soon as it finds something?
Windows 2000, searching the same hard drive (minus the ext2/3
partitions, but still most of it), starts to produce results after about
20 seconds.

wherever you are using the search. Using the search might list items
after 1 second, it depends of the order it looks though directories.
Does using the search in a directory with 10 items work correctly?

Thank you for your bug. That's probably because you have lot of datas
and hard disks are quite slow devices. The gnome-search-tool uses the
updatedb database (same as locate from a command line), the database
can easily be outdated though. Closing, that's not really a bug
** Changed in: nautilus
After 15 minutes I still had no results.
There is really a problem here -- searching a hard drive shouldn't be that
slow. It should at least produce SOME results -- I have jpg files on my desktop
and it surely would have found those early on.
