Nepomuk and Strigi are one of the first things I shut down when I install a
fresh Fedora with KDE. On every login they would start indexing the "desktop"
or whatever (I have nothing bar two default icons in my Desktop folder), and
then the virtuoso binary would start eating my CPU time for half-a-minute,
before finally settling down. And I see absolutely no (obvious) use of all that
on my machine.
So I shut them down, and never missed them since. :-) Though I am curious to
know what would be their practical purpose (some reasonable usecase)...
Nepomuk *should* not be a problem - strigi is the indexer, and is where
the resource hog could be expected. AIUI, Strigi indexes the
directories that you give access to, and Nepomuk allows all
Ankonadi-aware applications to draw on the information in the databases.
Of course this is not a complete description, but until someone comes
up with a better one....
