Before those lines start there is a very long query. Could you please post that along with your ~/.kde/share/config/nepomukstrigirc.

thanks for your efforts by the way

Here is the first lines after restarting and the file shrinking beginning
(it is hard to read):

just a strange update - I removed the korganizer files
from the list of folders to be searched and nepomuk now
appears stable - it no longer starts shrinking the
list of indexed files to zero and then rebuilds (and
then repeats).

I have no idea why getting rid of korganizer folder/files
would help with this problem.

I have an idea (a bug) and I also have a fix: http://pastebin.ca/1831551. Could you please apply it (on a clean 4.4.1 code) and rerun with the original config that made problems.

OK - I applied the patch and added the korganizer files to
the search.

So far, everything is working perfectly. So far, no shrinking/
growing oscillation...

good to hear.

a happy update: I added my kmail files to the index (which has
caused a lot of trouble in the past). nepomuk/strigi churned
away for quite a while quietly in the background indexing
about 1 gb of mail.

While nepomukservices grew to about 700mb memory use, it completed
indexing successfully. I restarted kde to get nepomuk memory footprint
down and the index was successfull "re-initialized" (if that's the
right word - it raced through indexing and went idle without
doing any damage to the index).

I can now search for mail.

Working great so far.

thanks for the patches

now that kde 4.4.2 is out I've of course lost the patches.
Will they work as they are on the 4.4.2 packages?

TIA
