Re: [slim] Large music library = slow Slimserver??

Probably a lot of good advice here, but one thing struck my mind. Could the fact that you have put very many folders in e.g. the rock folder contribute to the lousy performance? I don't think Windows can handle this properly. Perhaps you should try to have separate folders for Rock\A Rock\B etc.
