Public bug reported: Binary package hint: tracker
A few seconds after start indexing, Tracker starts consuming 100% cpu (or 50% for dual core), and checking .local/share/tracker/trackerd.log shows that trackerd is stuck in an infinite loop: 23 Oct 2009, 19:27:22: Tracker: Received monitor event:2->'IN_MODIFY' for file:'/home/zanglang/.xsession-errors' (cookie:0) 23 Oct 2009, 19:27:22: Tracker: Received monitor event:2->'IN_MODIFY' for file:'/home/zanglang/.xsession-errors' (cookie:0) 23 Oct 2009, 19:27:22: Tracker: Received monitor event:2->'IN_MODIFY' for file:'/home/zanglang/.xsession-errors' (cookie:0) 23 Oct 2009, 19:27:22: Tracker: Received monitor event:2->'IN_MODIFY' for file:'/home/zanglang/.xsession-errors' (cookie:0) ... Checking tracker-preferences shows that I indeed had ".xsession-errors" listed under Ignored File Patterns. The bug appears to be 100% reproducible everytime I start trackerd. I'm not sure if it's related to previous 100% CPU bugs, but Googling returns nothing about this .xession-error problem, so I assume it's not a duplicate.
