Full-text search allow to search words inside dictionary articles instead of search in headwords.

Yes, I can confirm. The same behavior of the program in Ubuntu 16.04.1 Unity. If the program is active and focused window processor loaded for some time by 35% and then stops. If the program is minimized to the system tray program starts shipping the processor to 35% of the time.

Read GD help about full-text search.

@Abs62 Yes to disconnect search the full text of the problem went away. Thanks for the tip! What influences included the full text search? I did not notice the difference. It accelerates the search speed?

Full-text search allow to search words inside dictionary articles instead of search in headwords.

@Abs62 And I seem to have understood. It allows you to find the word in its description or synonyms?

It allows to search articles by words/phrases in its content, not by headword.

@Abs62 about how much time it may take this process on a modern computer with a dual-core processor under the condition that Wikipedia is disabled and active seven dictionaries?

It depends on size and complexity of dictionary. From seconds for simple and small dictionary to several hours for big one.
