One issue with all this pre-compiled database is it makes things easy
for someone else to trace your actions. Maybe I am paranoid but I found

easily found.
But this is my preference.
I can see your point for system-wide indexes that index user files as
well (such as locate). Beagle indexes are created per userid, so I
don't think they can look in other users' /home, and others can't look
at your indexes.
I want to start encrypting everything on the laptop and many files on
the desktop.
