desktop search in Fedora - what's best?

[Dave Stevens]

Hi,

I've upgraded my Fedora from F9 to F14 with preupgrade and am now  
planning a new hard drive install and a fresh Fedora install to  
whatever's current when I get to it. I've wanted for a long time to  
have a non-google desktop search that would index browser history and  
emails at a minimum. Beagle would fill the fill. The last time I tried  
it was about three years ago and it was such a cpu hog that I had to  
take it out.

Reading some recent articles and reviews makes Beagle seem still to be  
the tool of choice but it doesn't seem to have had much activity  
recently from the developer side. Of cours, this may just be because  
the feature set is complete and working, which might make it useful  
and stable, a nice pair of attributes. Does anyone have better info on  
this? or even better, some recent experience?

TIA

Dave
