Ok, I have another unused machine here, I'll install Beagle there,
together with some monitoring tools.
Sounds good to me; then everyone who irrationally hates Beagle will
stop claiming it is broken.
I personally do not think that it's broken, but what I did experience in
the past was a Beagle slowing down even a 3GHz quadcore machine
significantly from time to another. One of the first things I did when
installing a new Linux operating system was to nuke Beagle right from the
start. I for myself will never use it anyway, I don't have the need for it,
but there are some Linux machines in my workingplace which would profit a
lot from it...

One thing to check is the search preferences: System / File System /
Search in the GNOME menu, then Search / Preferences in the "Desktop
Search" application. I have a directory to which I usually download
items and I exclude that from the Beagle search path via the "Indexing"
tab. Also in the "Data Sources" I disable the plugins for apps I don't
use. I don't think this makes a big difference but on my system the
BeagleDaemon runs with a scant ~12MB of writable memory [total is ~50MB,
but more than half of that is shared libraries].
