    @joneall, I'm sorry, but I was never able to stop baloo under xenial 16.04 LTS so I changed to Linux Mint 16.04, which solved the problem.

    Perhaps someone else can offer a fix?
    Kubuntu 23.11 64bit under Kernel 6.8.1, Hp Pavilion, 6MB ram. All Bow To The Great Google... cough, hack, gasp.

      Recently I have been having trouble with baloo_file_extractor using 100% CPU on my 17.04 and 17.10 systems.

      I have found the reason. It is because I have files in my home directory that are used for my home NFS network. If .kde/share/config/baloofilerc does not have these file excluded, it gets its knickers in a twist. This is because these file cannot and should not be entered particularly when not all of the NFS network is up.

      I see this as a failing in the design of baloo_file_extractor as it should not get hung on a folders that cannot be entered. Once the file .kde/share/config/baloofilerc is edited to add the excluded folders the generated file .config/baloofilerc should be either deleted or renamed.
