It sounds like your Emacs is slowing down while Emms loads the track
information user `later-do'. Not only does this cause a lot of
disk-reads but Emacs does process handling per-each track.
If this seems like a bother then try to turn asynchronous track
information loading off:
(setq emms-info-asynchronously nil)
This means that you will wait longer after calling `emms-add-...' but
Emacs should not become sluggish after that is done.
Indeed, when I want to load my entire music collection I find that
waiting for all the infos to load is a pain. So in that case I run:
(defun emms-add-universe-synchronously ()
(interactive)
(let ((emms-info-asynchronously nil))
(message "Loading...")
(emms-add-directory-tree emms-source-file-default-directory)
(message "Loading...Done")))
Which turns off async info loading only for the duration of adding the
entire music collection.
