So it's probably windows home server that is slowing everything down.
Those of you with the large libraries, does ipeng and the controller
respond almost instantaneously or is there a delay when searching
through genres or other categories? If there is a delay, how long?
Anyone using a Windows

Wow, that is huge.
Way back when I was in an internet music company, we ripped 10,000 CDs

CDs, but that was very close to the total in print/for sale.
