Public bug reported:
My system is a Asus A7N8X-X motherboard with 512 M of DDR400 memory, a AMD
XP3200 CPU , two HD's, and two DVD / CD recorder. On IDE 0 Master I have my
Windows OS and on IDE 0 Slave I have my Ubuntu OS, on IDE 1 Master I have a
DVD RW drive and on IDE 1 Slave I have a combo drive.
I'm very new with Ubuntu, and have spent two days to install Ubuntu 7.10 on IDE
0 Slave HD (I think there is a bug also in grub, but that is another report).
Finally when it got installed I noticed that some minutes after booting, the HD
began with a non stop activity, and the system began to get slower and slower.
Using the System Monitor:
Just after booting:
- HD almost no activity
- CPU 4%
- User memory 85M of 503M =17%
- Used Swap 0 of 1.4G = 0%
After 5 minutes
- HD w/ no interruption
- CPU 10%
- User memory 494M of 503M =98%
- Used Swap 526 of 1.4G = 36.4%
- Tracker 215M
After 10 minutes
- HD w/ no interruption
- CPU 6%
- User memory 490M of 503M =98%
- Used Swap 720 of 1.4G = 49%
- Tracker 440M
After 15 minutes
- HD w/ no interruption
- CPU 6%
- User memory 482M of 503M =96%
- Used Swap 734 of 1.4G = 50%
- Tracker 428M
At this point, the mouse hardly move and to open any program was taking minutes.
After disabling Tracker on System – Preferences – Sessions the problem ended.
As I didn't find any documentation about Tracker, what it is for?
