I use Max2play software for my LMS on Raspberry Pi and have used this for about five years upgrading the Pi as a new quicker version came out. I have been using the Pi 4 4GB since it came out and the Max2play beta download was available. I only use this Pi as a pure LMS server with a 2 TB USB HD attached with my library . I also purchased a Flirc case and this has reduced the operating temperature to around 42/43 deg which i feel is fine.
Pi 4 is smoother , faster and in my view more stable that the Pi3 + . A full scan does take around three minutes overall quicker than before but once this has done then upgrades to the LMS version , searches and instructions for next track etc are much quicker and smoother. I feel the Rpi 4 is a huge upgrade and offers response and feel that is in line with many expensive purpose built (and expensive) streamers / network players. I would reccomend an upgrade to Rpi 4 . I am sure there are people out there who can use the added RAM to give other advantages but as this is beyond my talents I will wait and then keep an eye on developments.
