i've run into this same issue, and i've found that different things affect the response time. like is iTunes the frontmost app? faster if not. are there other apps running? it seems trivial to query, but if there's even a 30% cpu load it seems to double or triple the response time. for anything other than playing a specific track i find it faster to do some basic searching through the 42MB xml file i've got. don't build a tree of course, just line by line regexes. - brian
