I just had a rethink about nepomuk and its 100% use of your cpu.

This was a known problem but has been 'fixed'. For example, I am 
actually now running nepomuk (in the past I always turned if off) and I 
don't even know that it is installed and active - and it has nothing to 
do with the fact that I have an 8-core cpu with 16GB of RAM.

I am wondering which version of nepomuk you have installed? nepomuk is 
an integrated part of 'kdebase4-runtime' and the version of this package 
which I have currently installed is 4.8.3-376.1.
