Comment 16 for bug 130817

Just for the record, I dislike anything that pegs the CPU at 100% for more than a few seconds. Not only does it make me spend time trying to figure what's going on, it forces the fan to come on and stay on, which is annoying and wasteful. I installed and am testing Google Desktop for Linux. One thing I liked about it right away is that it indexed my computer in less than one day, and it NEVER pegged the CPU. At least not for more than a few seconds at a time. This seems to me much more 'polite' than just grabbing the whole CPU for who knows how long, regardless of how 'nice' it is. Laptops aren't servers.
