Ok, I think I'm the one who started this thing in another thread:

I've got library of about 240.000 MP3 growing (LEGAL btw ;))

So I could tell:

Works finde on WIN XP/WIN 7 with 7.6, hangs with 7.4 and 7.5 (or gets
this slow, You can imagine an update scan lasting days or weeks...)

To get it correctly, he told me the performance wouldn't be not far as
good as on PC, but it would work without problems - as I told before I
was prepared the initial scan takes days ... but it crashes every time

Just my opinion: People who buy high quality hardware like a Touch will
have even more file that s.o. who is running SPS "just for fun" on his
PC - so it should be the other way round, I understand why it isn't...
Someone who only has 10.000 tracks (this are less than 1.000 CD) is
rather unlikely to buy an item like the touch - this is interesting for
people like me with a lot of music ;)

But to point it out again:
I've got NO problems with single bugs or poor performance, I've got a
problem with nothing running:

SBS 7.4/7.5 - not running on Windows,
SBS 7.6 - running fine on Windows - but bugs in Web UI makes it nearly
unusable
SB Touch - unusable for bugs (or less memory) make scanner crash
SP Radio (Nas) - unusuable (or only with tricks) for update scan works
but full rescan and initial scan habe a bug... I don't believe that it
is a problem of memory reall or is "Update scan" using much LESS memory
than the initial scan? IMHO initial scan should be quicker and work
smoother, for it can take EVERY file and import it - update scan has to
take EVERY file, look throughout the whole database if it already exist,
has to look WHAT has changed, has to delete old entrys/tags and fill-in
the new ones ...
