You have any idea how long you've been operating with the same 
$HOME disk?

Reason I ask is that when I moved to 13.10 BETA,  I ran into some 
severe CPU problems with MYSQL and Akonadi and Nepomuk 
trying to figure things out.   Never had the problem in 13.04 but I 
had other problems like search not working in KMAIL.

Today I started from scratch an rebuilt my entire $HOME disk, with 
a lot of referencing to my old one to determine settings for KMAIL 
and desktop frills.  Now things are working like a charm.

When I went into my old $HOME to search for some things, I found 
that the layout (directory names and organization) were no where 
NEAR what they are under a clean $HOME.  Totally different and I 
am surprised that the old one ran as well as it did.

Just saying....   it might be time to clean house.
