Isn't the library filled bit by bit so you can start playing the
already scanned tracks before the complete scanning is finished. The
new/changed files rescanning when you have changed many files will
still have playback disturbances and I'm not sure that's possible to
avoid, the advantage is that rescanning 10 added files will take 5
seconds instead of 4 hours as it can take to rescan the whole library
as Custom Scan did before.

At the moment I think only LastFM, Custom Tag, Mixed Tag and Rating Tag
will work. I'll see if it's easy to add the TrackStat based
import/export module sometime soon, hopefully later this week.

Disc usage is only relevant if you use one of the scanning modules
provided by the Custom Scan module itself, I suspect it's mostly Custom
Tag, Mixed Tag and LastFM module that might cause problems regarding
disc usage.

Could you try to enable "debug" logging in both "plugin.trackstat" and
"plugin.customscan" and see if you get any errors in the server.log or
scanner.log when the server hangs with 100% CPU. I suspect it might be
related to the TrackStat refresh operation which execute when SBS
scanning is finished but I'm not completely sure, the server.log or
scanner.log when activating debug logging for Custom Scan/TrackStat
should indicate if this is the case.
