Today my root had filled up.

I found that there was a tracker database file of 27 GB in
~/.cache/tracker. I  removed it and rebooted.

When the system rebooted I ran top and saw that the tracker-miner-r had
started and I killed it.

I have researched tracker-control and did 'tracker-control -r' to scrub
the things on my cache.

I want to either disable the process from starting at boot or reconfig
it to save lots less data.

I notice the following:$ tracker-control -l
Found 0 miners running
brucesalem :~
$ tracker-control -a
Found 3 miners installed:
  org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Emails
  org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Applications
  org.freedesktop.Tracker1.Miner.Files

can I disable the last one? I suspect that is where most of the cruff is
comming from.
