I would be interested to learn about how the malware got on your
system. It sounds like it managed to install itself with root
privileges.
Do you recall what you were doing around the time it showed up or you
experienced the slow down?
You might want to slow down before jumping to the 'malware' conclusion.

Summary : Tracker miners and metadata extractors
Description :
Tracker is a powerful desktop-neutral first class object database,
tag/metadata database and search tool.
Yeah, clearly installed via dnf in some routine update, in my case in
mid-December. I see it on two other local systems here, but it's not
running continuously on them, just on the one system. Must be a config
somewhere, but the man page doesn't mention any configuration files,
just some startup and debug options. Wonder if it's crawling across NFS
mounts to my NAS?
