Thanks both of you.
Just for reference, this is what I ended up with:
Code:
--------------------
dd if=/dev/urandom bs=2 count=100 2>/dev/null|flac -s --no-padding
--endian=big --sign=signed --channels=2 --bps=16 --sample-rate=44100 - -f -o
somefile.flac --tag="ALBUM=Some Album" --tag="ARTIST=Some Artist"
--tag="TITLE=Some Track"
--------------------
If anyone have similar needs to generate a large library, let me know
and I'll package it up a bit so it's usable by someone else. The
scripts will generate a library of specified number of flac files with
tag data and directory structure based on data from a discogs database
dump. A 50 000 track library takes up 212 MB storage space on the disk.
Took about 8 minutes to rescan in my setup without any third party
plugins activated.
If someone just wants a 50 000 tracks library to to some performance
testing with, I've uploaded the ones I generated here:

(I'll upload a 100 000 tracks library a bit later if there is an
interest for this)
