Desktop search?

What's everyone using these days? Am worried about some of them (Copernic? WDS?) churning away at valuable sys resources.

GDS here. Just reinstalled a few days ago to force a full re-indexing. But I like it because it's not a resource hog (No process has been above 0% at idle on a 1.8Ghz Dothan).
IBM ThinkPad T42p (2373-7XU): 1.8GHz/1024MB, 15" UXGA, DVD-RW, 80GB, 2200b/g.
T42 (2374-3VU): 1.7GHz/512MB, 14.1"SXGA+, DVD-RW, 80GB, 2200b/g.

I gave Google a shot, but I wasn't impressed. Yahoo's new one is based on X1 and seems to do a good job. Takes a while to index, but once it's done I think it's sleeker than Google's.
