I can confirm tracker-related problems on F16 x86_64 with latest updates.
Two comps: Dual Core Intel, i5 Intel
Laptop Asus U30JC i3 Intel
On every boot on of the trackers tracker-miner-fs or tracker-store eat from
30-80% of cpu depends of cpu architecture. It takes minute or two, then
everything become normal.
On every installation have GNOME3 and XFCE installed. Most of the time
using Cinnamon/GNOME.
All trackers are from tracker package.

Tracker is started in your session startup, not via systemctl and you
can disable it if you want. In my case, I have it start in my session.
I am running 64-bit F17 using XFCE and have no issues with it (tracker
version 0.12.10). If I want to disable it I'd go to
Applications->Settings->Settings Manager->Session and Startup
select the "Application Autostart" tab and uncheck the tracker-related
items.
Again, I have no issues and I'm running 64-bit F17 on four machines.
