[Bug 655831] Re: update-apt-xapian-index bogs down system

[Poul Wittig]

Same problem for my Ubuntu Server 11.10, fully updated micro instance
servers running in the Amazon cloud. When it happens I can neither SSH
into them, TeamSpeak server starts lagging immensely and my blog is no
longer connectable to. The problem I solved by removing the package, but
it is quite a severe bug I would say, for a standard installation to
have.

Title:
  update-apt-xapian-index bogs down system

Status in Apt Xapian Index:
  New
Status in “apt-xapian-index” package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: apt-xapian-index

  This is related to bug 363695 but is not a dupe - that has been
  "fixed".

  every time the update-apt-xapian-index occurs, the system crawls.
  Possibly related to the I/O responsiveness bug of bug 131094.

  The process is extremely intrusive, taking simple things such as flash
  video and throwing the performance down the toilet.

  While this apport bug was collected via a Lucid machine this also
  affects maverick.
