BTW: not that I ever properly understood what Zeitgeist was for nor I am
sure if it is not more or less abandonded these days, but does not this
make it rather useless? Was not it supposed to learn th efrequency of
things you use so that they can be then displayed as first results in
the Dash?
#26 seems to have made a huge difference for me on 15.10. Perhaps there
should be some built-in regular maintenance for that database.

Well, I've still got it in 14.10. There's no doubt that this isn't a

I'm pretty sure that's because of reading stuff from the hard drive (and
I'd expect it to be more Unity related than Zeitgeist).

I have the same behavior on 3 different PCs, all i7s. It often takes

minutes of use.

This is still an issue on 14.04. From the moment the desktop appears
until the first search result shows up on the dash it's a good minute
and a half on a moderately fast laptop (i5-4200M, 8GB RAM, 7200rpm hdd).

Any progress on this issue? The tips worked to a certain extent, but did
not fix it. The issue is with Unity and not Zeitgeist, since Synapse
works fine and fast. This problem is crucial, because it undermines one
of the main assets of the Dash: finding anything fast. I don't mind

Trying the sqlite vacuum command didn't work all that well even though I
think it helped a little. It got even slightly better by deleting
everything in the ~/.local/share/zeitgeist/ directory but still, Dash is
quite slow to polulate the first time after login.
Now, the results of the files lens
This tweak speeds up things a little for me, thanks!
You can automate it by creating a cron-job, e.g. create a file in
/etc/cron.daily/, name it cleanupdash or whatever you want and paste
#!/bin/sh
sqlite3 ~/.local/share/zeitgeist/activity.sqlite vacuum
into it. Save it, change permission
According to this link
(http://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=2106949), you could achieve
the same by installing sqlite3 and performing:
cd .local/share/zeitgeist/
sqlite3 activity.sqlite vacuum
I'll be trying that on the worst of my three Ubuntu machines. On this

Well, I am afraid I will not be able to take advantage of them until

removing the directory made it fast).

Thanks for digging through this Doughy; I am not sure why Zeitgeist
