woo - library size may indeed be the issue.  I emailed Music IP support
about this and got some interesting information (which I also posted to
the bug report):

This does shed a lot of light on the issue.

With the Music IP service running, try browsing to
http://localhost:10002/api/songs?extended

SlimServer 6.5 tries to call that URL to retrieve a listing of all the
songs Music IP knows about (at least I think that's why it makes that
call).  In my log file, the Slim Devices bug crew found that that URL
was timing out.  I tried browsing to it on my machine and it timed out
for me as well.

Yes, that's correct - we asked for that call so that we could make just 1
HTTP request to MusicIP instead of as many songs as you have.

Music IP recommended I use the new "paging" option which allows you to
pull back a set number of tracks from Music IP at one time, like this:

http://localhost:10002/api/songs?page=0&results=100

That will return just the first 100 results (note that page is a
0-based index).

Hmm.. there will need to be some rework to suppor this.

SlimServer 6.3 doesn't seem to make a call to api/songs?extended (I
don't understand how it pulls data from Music IP) but I don't have the
same problem in 6.3.

Also correct - the ?extended feature was introduced in 6.5

6.3 makes a request to MusicIP for every song.
