Desktop search using nepomuk works fine, in dolphin and krunner. I use nepomuk 
for tagging and rating files, more and more often. The standard indexing of my 
files NEVER cause trouble (that was years ago!), nor does searching in files 
cause cpu spiking.

In kmail, without nepomuk you dont have search and address completion (the 
latter really do not work very often, but that is another story).

So i believe it is wrong to blame nepomuk developers here. I recently 
forwarded a mail from Vinesh Handa suggesting some things that kdepim 
developers can do to improve things, and some things that nepomuk developers 
can do. That is a good aproach - let us help each other!

There is also a bug[1] that I filed about the nepomuk problems caused by 
kdepim applications - kmail is not alone! I think it good to consider ALL 
kdepim code that may involve feeding or querying nepomuk once more, if it is 
nessecary, and if it is limited to ONLY what is nessecary!
