Hello:
It's probably just indexing (from a quick search of the application ).
I'm not that familiar with it, however, you can try, from a terminal ....

Open a terminal and type and enter
top
then open another terminal and type and enter
pkill trackerd
(check the terminal that has top running to confirm the shutdown)
If you installed the application using yum, then

yum remove tracker

and you should be good to go
