> What are 'vendor' folders at all?
 vendor: Composer (php librarry manager) dumps libraries into vendor folder in the same directory where `composer update` is called. This is default behavior of composer. One way to think of the vendor directory is as a more generic form of "lib"

I filed a bug https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=782562

First time I ran tracker never stopped indexing. I monitored tracker-miner-fs.log and also with (/usr/libexec/tracker-extract -v 2). At some point you would expect logging to stop when it becomes idle. But it didn't. Only after tweaking and hard resetting situation improved dramatically. I found similar bugs on bugzilla, I will comment there.

Perhaps yes. But my intention is to put indexing at minimal level. In previous version of tracker I used with Ubuntu Gnome, meta.db in ~/.cache used to grow over 1 GB. Again I found the relative bug and will continue discussion over there. Let's not pollute this bug discussing tracker issues.
