I reduced the buffer size to 20MB, restarted LMS and did a full scan. 
Not knowing quite how all this works, I then wondered if there might be
relevant data held in memory even when LMS is stopped, so I rebooted and
repeated.

To be be brief I have not detected much difference in scan times with
changes in buffer size or with/without the extra indices.  Custom Scan
is a few minutes quicker with a larger buffer, but it varies by several
minutes each time anyway.  The LMS scan varies by a minute or so.

By far the biggest improvement for me in scanning has been due to the
vacuuming.  I believe my Custom Scan scans are much quicker because they
now start with a vacuumed library.db.  Similarly the improvement in menu
responsiveness is, as far as I can tell, mostly down to vacuuming.  I'll
try a test later without vacuuming.



LMS 7.9 on VortexBox Midi running Xubuntu 14.04, FLACs 16->24 bit,
44.1->192kbps. Wired Touch + EDO, coax to Musical Fidelity M1 CLiC.
Wireless Xubuntu 14.04 laptop controls LMS via Chromium.   Meridian
Explorer USB DAC to listen via Squeezelite on Vortexbox & other PCs as
required.  Spare Touch in loft.
