There's not enough information here for developers to be able to have any hope of fixing this.

Could you try to come up with a specific test case to reproduce this bug from a clean install?

How many files do you have in indexed directories? How big are those files?

Is it a lot of big files or a lot of small files?

yeah sorry, but i had to start from somewhere :)

i did a hard reset
>_ tracker reset -r

then i restarted it
>_ tracker daemon -s

status shows
>_ tracker status
Currently indexed: 1019 files, 67 folders
Remaining space on database partition: 7.9 GB (12.61%)
All data miners are idle, indexing complete

and now i cant reproduce the CPU usage :/

irrelevant question, there is some kind of MD in LP to format the bug report?
