Public bug reported:
I recently noticed that several tracker related programs were using 100%
cpu on my system and in particular tracker-store filled up completely
all the available disk space in my home partition.
I rerun tracker-preferences to make sure that indexing would not proceed
if less than 20% of free space is available, but it seems that tracker-
store ignores it. After I noticed that I had left only 44Kb free on the
home partition, I deleted the cache from another program and I noticed
that tracker-store filled up again the disk space that I freed few
minutes before.
This is the content of my .cache/tracker/ directory:
