Bug Description
After the last updates in gutsy, strigi is enabled by default. The daemon started to index my home folder (~8GB). The index files soon used over 2,2 GB of disk space, which totally filled my partition.
Shouldn't there be any limit or mechanism, so that my partition doesn't run out of disk space only because the strigi index is growing that big?

... and all CPU capacity for the user session. My system has been running continuously since the Gutsy updates were installed about 12 hours ago, and upon checking it out this morning, the process strigidaemon is using between 98.5 and 100% of "user" capacity, and has the 2 cores up to 55 and 65 degrees C.
