You must be a lucky one. :) In KDE 4.9.x and before Nepomuk goes crazy from 
time to time slowing down the whole KMail. In 4.10 there is a partially 
rewritten Nepomuk, a pim indexer for nepomuk and there were lots of speed 
optimizations.
 At least I kept Nepomuk off before that, but now it is on for quite some 
time (~2 months I guess) and works ok performance wise. I don't search often 
though, so I don't know how reliable it search, but completion is mostly 
fine (with a slight delay, so the results don't appear instantly).
 So from my personal experience and feeback from many users, I keep my 
suggestion:
- pre-4.10: Nepomuk off
- 4.10 or newer: Nepomuk on, at least try it with Nepomuk enabled
