Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: beagle

I recently upgraded from Dapper to Edgy on AMD64.  Frequently (once per
hour or so, seemingly more common when I step away from the computer for
a while), beagle apparently goes wild indexing my hard drive and quickly
consumes all 1gb of system memory and 1gb of swap.  The beagled-helper
process is the one consuming the most memory (when I can get a system
monitor open to watch), but if beagled is not also killed, it will spawn
a new beagled-helper that does the same thing, nearly immediately.  The
net result of this is that any time the computer is left alone to turn
off the screen by itself, beagle runs away and so it cannot be woken
back up.  I have tried moving ~/.beagle out of the way in case faulty
data from my old dapper install was causing problems, but that does not
help.  I have uninstalled beagle (and beagle-backend-evolution)
temporarily until this problem is resolved, as a workaround, since it
makes the system nearly unusable. beagled is listed as a startup program
in the session preferences.  Thanks for your help!
