Just upgraded and the tracker-miner process is taking a constant cpu load of about 15%, and iotop shows a constant disk write that varies between 2 and 11 M/s.
It has been like this for a couple hours and shows no signs of stopping. Is this some expected behavior? Can I disable it? i’m worried about affecting my ssd lifespan.
Its been 6 years since I tackled this so i forget. but from command prompt you can start by checking status of tracker miner service then trying stop /start. There are also tracker miner commands to pause, refresh cache, monitor etc. so you would have to lookup what those are. it could even be a permission issue, or version issue
