I have not used any of them extensively, but from playing around
with Beagle and Tracker, I prefer Tracker. Tracker is supposed
to be lighter on resources than Beagle. Tracker also does not
depend on Mono, if you care about that sort of thing.
Another option is Strigi, which has community connections to
KDE (but it does not have KDE or QT dependencies).
Unfortunately, there seems to be a lull in Strigi development right
now.
