tracker-extract is using a huge amount of RAM
0
I looked online for an easy solution, but I couldn't find any. I know it's part of GNOME desktop environment. This is the memory usage that appears in the Processes tab of System Monitor.

edit: I tried all of these solutions https://ask.fedoraproject.org/en/question/9822/how-do-i-disable-tracker-in-gnome/ but none of them worked. I ended up writing a script that kills it all the time but this is not a good solution.

5.0 GiB memory is not normal RAM usage for Tracker (possibly a bug). According to wiki.gnome.org/Projects/Tracker/WhatIsTracker typical RAM usage for Tracker is 4-6 MB. Tracker runs at nice+19 so it should have a minimal impact on your system. 5.0 GiB memory is not minimal impact on your system.

Edit your question to clearly reflect the question. Tracker indeed is eating CPU and memory. Probably this is why Ubuntu does not include it by default, although that may change with 19.04. I will then remove it right away. Tried it several times on Antergos without satisfactory results (would not find files by file name!)
