Launch Services and Mavericks

A very annoying corruption that I've had to deal with quite regularly is the rebuilding of Launch Services in both OS 10.7 and 10.8. I haven't yet migrated over to Mavericks 10.9, but I'm curious if other users who have had this same problem found that it is fixed in Mavericks. The usual symptom is duplicate entries of apps when choosing "open with." One particular app (PdfPen Pro) never opens when trying to open a document in this manner. Manually navigating is a pain. Rebuilding Launch Services corrects the problem, but only for a short time.



A strange think linked to my rebuilding this morning- mdworker (in Activity Monitor) is suddenly using lots of cpu. I also see numerous mdworkers at work in Activity Monitor. Mdworker has something to do with indexing, but I've never had trouble like this.
