linux - Tracker-extract and Tracker-store processes consuming huge Amount of RAM -
I am using ARC Linux, kernel 3.16.
In the last one week, my two processes have a lot of RAM in the tracker-extracts and tracker-storage, it causes system hanging once every 2 hours.
300 MB and Tracker-Store is taking 2 GB RAM. (Total RAM 3.8 GB)
I want to know what these tracker procedures are and what is their work, if I kill them then does it affect the performance of the system?
What are the methods to kill them both permanently so that I can get rid of these two processes?
Please help me.
Use pkgfile
to know the package related to these files:
pkgfile tracker-extract
Result:
additional / tracker
A quick package search, using
pacman
( pacman -sss tracker
), shows: additional / tracker 1.2.3-1 (gnome) All-In-One Indexer, Search Tool and Metadata Database
Since I am not a user of GNOME, Can not comment on the ability of the person who provides this package. But you can always try to delete the package and see what happens:
pacman-rs tracker
