the scenario I'm experiencing, I can start MMM SS, everything's fine for maybe 60 secs, then SS maxes out on the CPU. My reload interval is set to 3600 seconds. To verify this I set the reload interval to 0 (don't reload), as suggested in the bug detail, and it had no effect. Ditto.

RE: [slim] Re: MusicMagic, SlimServer 6.01 and SoftSqueeze 2.0b3
Hey all: I have the same symptom (snipprt of log file pasted below). MMM has finished its analysis (0/0/0) and the scan starts about a minute after slim.exe is run. My reload interval is set to 3600. I'm using SS 6.0.2 and MMM 1.1.5 One thing I see here is that slim is reading 9660 songs in the MMM db. Slimserver sees 9667 songs. The seven missing songs are too short for MMM to analyze. What that says to me is that slim is making a read of the MMM db successfully. I'll leave slim running with MMM overnight and see if it finshes scanning and is stable. It's hard to leave it running and inoperable (e.g, with the CPU pegged) as the SB gets a lot of use. Thanks kdf.

What's the general view on this product, especially as one evidently has to subscribe to get Slimserver integration? Is it worth the effort? It's great (when it works I guess - given the nature of this thread). I have a 10k song library with seriously eclectic spread (I suppose that in 10k tracks it's easy to be eclectic). Almost every time I make a mix I listen to something of quality that I haven't heard in years...I almost always think, How did it know? It's a great product and once the integration is solved then it'll be near perfect. I do wonder how it works. I imagine through some type of eigen solution as it's so fast.

Yes - 100% completed - status bar is reading 0 / 0 / 0 so all tracks have been analysed / added etc. Whether I start slim.exe manually or via the service it starts ok then within about 5-10 minutes it will ramp up to 100% CPU and stay there for 20-30 minutes.
