So, what I've been wondering is -- and no, I don't think I'm so
penetratingly brilliant that I'm thinking of something y'all haven't
probably been discussing for a long time, I just don't know what the
issues are -- are there any plans to put housekeeping things like iTunes
library scans in a separate process (or thread -- I'm old-fashioned and
not fully up on these "thread" things) running at a low priority while a
dedicated high-priority server process just serves music?  Is this hard
to implement in an OS-independent way, or is there something
multi-process unsafe about the database used, or would it just be too
gigantic a change to get to soon, or is something like this already done
and I wouldn't recognize it if it hit me on the head?
