Baloo_file at 100% CPU usage, but Baloo is disabled.

I run KDE with Baloo disabled (both by including my home directory on its exclusion list and by adding "Indexing-Enabled=false" to .kde4/share/config/baloofilerc).

Nonetheless, I'm often finding baloo_file taking 100% of one CPU core. Why is it doing anything, let alone stealing a core, if it is disabled?

So the questions:
1) How can I figure out what it's doing?
2) How can I stop it (I guess the .kde4 fix is dated now that we're on KDE5, and I almost have to presume that the arrogant dev has decided to disregard the user settings again)?

Thanks!

Tried editing ~/.config/baloofilerc?
