I'm having some serious performance issues with V6.0.2. When the server is started for the first time ever it pegs the CPU close to 100% for about 5 mins. I can understand this since it is importing the library for the first time.
The problem is if I have slim and iTunes running at the same time any small change made in iTunes (like adding or deleting a track) causes slim to hog the CPU. Slim will immediatly jump to 80% CPU utilization and stays there for a while. Seems like the only option is to shutdown slim while making iTunes changes and then fire it back up and wait for it to make it's updates. My setup: Windows XP SP2 P4 2.53GHz 1 GB Memory Two Disks (C:111GB D: 228GB) SqueezeBox – one squeeze box connected over wired 100Mbps network iTunes Settings: Music Folder D:\My Music\iTunes\iTunes Music Keep iTunes Music folder organized is checked Copy files to iTunes Music folder when adding to library is checked Library has 8539 songs, 312 Artists, and 583 Albums 44.88GB Version 4.7.1.30 Most songs are mp3, though I have about 200 AAC files.
