Trying the sqlite3 vacuum command on my worst behaving machine didn't work all that well even though I think it helped a little. It got even slightly better by deleting everything in the ~/.local/share/zeitgeist/ directory but still, Dash is quite slow to polulate the first time after login.
Now, the results of the files lens pop up after a couple of seconds and the applications results come after about five. The rotating magnifying glass in the search field indicates that there's still something pending, however, but I can't figure out what it is.
After having been used once, the Dash is fast and responsive. It's only a problem the first time after login, and I believe it's worst on the first login after reboot. I hope Stephen is right that this will be better in 13.10. It's just sad if we have to wait until October, though.
