I agree 100% percent with this. Whenever update-apt-xapian runs my computer
becomes completely useless for some time and has also overheated some of my
friend's computers. I think something like this is best dealt with by adding
a note to the release notes? We do get a fair few questions on this in IRC
each release so a note in the release notes would probably assist most
users.
