i have a new installation with 8.04 hardy: same problem:
tracker consumes all cpu (despite saying it is in state 'sleeping').
this is after the system was sitting idle for a day, thus all available files should have been indexed.
please fix, or make it at least not default setting: it is a huge disappointment for somebody not knowledgeable installing ubuntu and find it SOOOOO SLOW, only because of tracker (which is not terribly useful, missing a more selective search function).

thank you for (otherwise) a nice system!
