Huge instability and insanely large memory footprint in 9.04

[David MENTRE]

Hello,

> I don't really know where to start. During past month, my machine constantly went to trashing mode where the hard-disk light is constantly on and I can't access anything or even swtich to linux console for several *minutes*.

As somebody else suggested, have you tried to remove trackerd? It
trashed my machine, despite having 4 GiB of RAM with 64 bits Ubuntu.

My personal rant: why this trackerd included by default? I always had
a bad experience with it, i.e. the trashing you observed.

Best regards,
david
