This is some really bad news.
I understand that some people have no need to index their home dirs, but I (and I assume many others) do.
Before this update I used control-F basically all the time to navigate to different parts of my file system (I'm a novelist, and I often forget what my documents are saved as, so I used to search for content). Every search took no more than a few seconds. Now, the search takes a whole lot longer, and I can't even search for content.

From a usability point of view, I find this decision weird. If Ubuntu has chosen tracker to be on by default, I fail to understand why it is not used as default for the nautilus search.

Anyway, could anyone point me in the direction of how to change this, at least for myself?
Thanks.
