    If you’re on windows, Everything by Void tools is the best at indexing and searching.

        I’m sure there are similar tools on Linux. When I install KDE Plasma, I always disable baloo indexer because I don’t need it, but I think it does something like Everything.

          If you’re running your Linux install from an ssd, you could probably just leave it enabled. Ssd’s are really, really fast at reads and indexing, vs mechanical hard drives, it doesn’t really add much overhead to an ssd.
