FWIW, appscript seems to have no problems for me returning a track list
of length 21361. You're not quite doing an Apple-to-app(le)script
comparison, though. I get a somewhat faster response from iTunes if I
construct an appscript reference similar to your SB one:
app('iTunes').sources()[0].playlists()[0].tracks()
This is using the pre-release appscript 0.19 with the python.org python
2.5.2 on 10.5.5 Intel.
I see your track count is 38447. 2**16 > 38447 > 2**15, so could there
possibly be some overflow problem somewhere?
