Yes, I know I can disable Baloo, but I feel like KRunner is one of KDE's big attractions. Another issue is more niche and may have to do with Manjaro as much as KDE. Protonmail Bridge needs Gnome Keyring, which has broken on update a couple of times. I may need to opt for a more stable underlying distro (I have been watching lots of videos about OpenSUSE, and I have been trying out MX on my testing machine).
I am told that Baloo behaves like this on first index, and then settles down. The trouble is that I have been reporting on large databases and introducing these materials to my system. Baloo indexes them, too, which leads to kswapd kicking in, fans howling, etc
