again. You are talking about stuff you do know nothing about. Semantic desktop |
| 26 |
is not a MUST. You can turn it off. |
| 27 |
Second, even if you use it the impact on performance is negligble. updatedb |
| 28 |
running over your harddisks does a lot more damage than nepomuk - with the |
| 29 |
additional bonus that nepomuk only indexes once. |
