I've heard others say that, but it's not causing any problem here, and I 
haven't seen any freezes.  Strigi doesn't run here, but Nepomuk has been 
running for several months.  Could it be the strigi indexing that's causing 
the problem?  It looks to me as though (Redland notwithstanding) it may not be 
simply nepomuk.
