Description
Recent changes to Tracker's Model class appears to set off node monitoring events, making Tracker windows loop.
I believe it happens only when Tracker is set to display localized names (via the Locale preferences) and I assume this is related to my recent changes to Model, where the SYS:NAME attribute is read (if present) when a Model is opened. It doesn't do any writing AFAIK, so I don't see how it happens.
Other node monitoring apps such as Pe and TextSearch pick up on the events too.

I've been running Haiku around hrev53636 32bit with the German locale (including the app/folder translation) for a week now.
I didn't encounter Tracker pegging a CPU in normal usage in this time.
I then used TextSearch to grep for "Window" in data/catalogs/ of the Haiku source, which turns up a large number of hits. Then I switched back and forth between the r1beta1 branch and current master, which should trigger many node monitoring events when catalogs dis/appear.
While the w>TextSearch thread does peg for quite some time, I suppose that's just due to the actual grepping. The PathMonitorLoop thread stays pretty calm throughout.
Maybe this issue was resolved in the past decade...

Closing as not reproducible as no one has confirmed this in a while. Thanks for testing :)

Remove milestone for tickets with status = closed and resolution != fixed
(In #7552) I don't think it's a good idea to make this option default to on without first fixing #7434. When set to translate Tracker window threads sometimes get in a loop and peg a CPU core. It's most likely due to my work and I apologize for not having put more effort into finding the root cause.
