try this to improve matters (as root)

 







 

this controls the parse-metadata process, which top reveals as consuming vast amounts of cpu and hdd space...

 

stopping it should improve matters, if you wish to remove it altogether then do this

 

This is a wonderful tip, I actually got quite a bit of speed back from this. I'm only wondering what this process does and if I need it to run and if disabling it can cause any problems to develop in the future.
