--- Comment #6 from robakjos...@gmail.com --- UPDATE2: I have mostly good news and some bad news. The good news is that excluding my ~/.steam and ~/.local/share/Steam folder seemed to resolve the constant high load writing that I was seeing before. The only bad news is that Baloo will still write to the disk frequently, and alternates between indexing and idling indefinitely. Granted it's not anywhere near as bad as before, but after disabling the indexing of hidden files and folders, everything goes back to normal. No more random constant writing to the disk at all. So it's probably another unknown that would need to be excluded. If there's any additional folders I should blacklist, please let me know. Otherwise, I am not as concerned about it since it doesn't look like a bug. Nevertheless, I can't be absolutely sure if the main problem is a bug with Baloo, or if Steam is just particularly bad for indexing. It certainly seems to be in a loop whenever it happens though. So I will keep this report open for the time being. I want to hear from others before I come to more of a conclusion. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are watching all bug changes.
