[CONFIRMED][FIXED][WORKAROUND]
Since I only use KDE at my job, I really need Kontact to work. So I downloaded
the source RPM and patched it so it stops the indexing process. 

Now I can work again! No more 15 minutes delays every 16 minutes!

I know the workaround is not a FIX (and it an ungly solution) but since I don't
really need the full text search, I just disabled it and use a filesystem
"flag" to turn it on whenever I need it.
