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

[memartin]

Just had another look into my notes. The problem appeared for me after
upgrading from quantal to raring. I have also found bug 1152736 and bug
1185172 dealing with a potential kswapd regression in Kernel 3.8 and
might be related.

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

Status in Enablement project for the Toshiba AC100 NetBook:
  New
Status in Apt Xapian Index:
  New
Status in “apt-xapian-index” package in Ubuntu:
  Triaged

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.
