"TL;DR: Too Long, Didn't Read" right right right ^^ I was too focused on Kindle related terms and abbrevations ....

"The usual, 'dumb' way to check is to search for a nonsense string from the Homepage, and see if anything shows up as 'Currently Indexing' (or whatever the header is actually called, can't remember OTOH)."

So I just entered some gibberish into the search, all I can see happening is the little "ring"-thingy in the top left corner spinning, nothing else really.

"The sensible way to check is to look at the output of htop, and check if the indexing thread is being silly. Checking the logs (showlog in a shell, ;dm in the search bar) is also generally a good idea."

And this sounds good but kinda stumps me. htop I heard before in regards to linux other than that I'm drawing a bit blank. Could you give me something a little more "step-by-step"-ish or at least point me in the direction to some basic instructions for this ? :P
