Start10 search is *incredibly* slow and ramps processor (4.5GHz 4c) to 100%, takes up to a minute to search for anything.
y u no index?

Hey there,
Great software and I love everything about it except what happens when I tap the windows key and start typing. The search is, well calling it unusable would be rude but it's definitely not good and I'd go so far as to label it "borderline functional."
Let me give you some context to back my complaint: I'm running all of this on a fast SSD, I'm also running an 8GB block level ram cache in front of that so at the very least after the first walk through the search path and file contents Start10 should *at least* be able to pull whatever it's looking for from my cache.
.. But it doesn't. I could probably trace the code path and figure out exactly what it's doing but I ain't gettin' a check for that so, yeah.
Anyway, could you please at least have the search function create and reference an index? That'd be nice, I've basically stopped searching with start10 and using right-win exclusively when I need to quickly find something and that basically defeats the purpose of installing your software in the first place.
Thanks! I'm looking forward to Start10 being even better!
PS: If you'd like me to trace this and find a perfect repro I'm happy to hire out as freelance QA, just let me know.
