Thanks for your feedback!

The only thing I can think of about the cpu and memory usage you are
experiencing is that you have a SearchView open that is still collecting
results from your query. When you open a new View, the old ones are
still left in the background, and can be navigated to by pressing ';',
which opens a list of currently open Views. Maybe there needs to be some
way to open a new view, closing the current one, which may be desired
behavior in some cases.

Ner uses yaml for it's configuration (see ner.yaml.sample in the source
directory). I'm not sure it's worth making the configuration files
compatible, because there are several differences between ner and sup
that make some options make sense for one and not the other.
