Still lovin' Snowy. Current uptime of 78 days, (I know, I ought to restart just for the fun of it), plenty of free memory, and mds is currently using 117MB of Real Memory, and 61MB of Private Memory.

I send all my email to Gmail for the purposes of searching, and for everything else, if I want it searchable I put it in EagleFiler. :-)

I need Spotlight to be on to test various things, plus I think content searching in Mail still requires it.

I remain amazed that this is not a priority.

I rebooted about 12 hours ago, and mds is already using 2 GB of private memory again.

On my new MBP it was terrible but it was because the OS ram usage was high and it was swapping like crazy. I upgraded from 4 to 8 GB, which seems to improve things.
