Do you use any customized settings in your MySQL instance besides those
in the "High" Database Memory Config ?
If so, could you share them ?

Which MySQL version are you using ?
I'm using MySQL 5.0.21.

I just tried with a 250 000 track library (with 7.6.1 r33004) and
SQLite took about 4 hours for a full scan in my environment, MySQL is
in progress but about 6 hours after it has started it has still just
reached 100 000 out of 250 000 tracks, so it's clearly slower than
SQLite also in a large library in my setup.

Maybe it's just Linux vs Windows but it feels a bit strange that we get
such opposite results if it's just the operating system that differs.

Maybe it could be the CPU ? 
My virtual machine only have access to one of the CPU cores and I'm
guessing you have a multi core CPU which probably is an advantage with
MySQL both since it runs in a separate process and also because it's
probably more optimized for usage with a multi core CPU than SQLite.

If our MySQL configuration is the same, maybe I'll try to run the 250
000 library directly on the laptop with a Core2Duo P8400 CPU to see if
I see the same thing in a non virtual environment with a dual core
CPU.

Besides Linux I have also have a Windows Vista installation on the
laptop so I could try how it looks in both Ubuntu and Vista on the same
hardware but I'm not sure that's worth anything as I think Windows Vista
is generally considered to be a lot slower than both XP and Windows 7
which it's probably more likely that people using Windows are using.
