It does in the not entirely uncommon case where you have setup dovecot-fts-xapian, have multiple system users rather than a single uid owning all mailboxes, and need to index all mailboxes. PID USERNAME PRI NICE SIZE RES STATE WAIT TIME CPU COMMAND 44468 root 2 0 11M 18M sleep/6 netio 1:41 68.36% doveadm index -A * With solr the indexing is done out-of-process and typically under a safe uid.
