Lossless files that SB handles natively (FLAC and WAV) don't impose any
additional processing load on your server. If your lossless files are
ALAC that would be a different story.

What interface are you using to choose artist, etc? The LMS web
interface is always slow with underpowered server hardware because it
takes a surprising (to me) amount of computing resources to serve those
web pages, although 10 minutes seems especially extreme. But using the
Touch's touchscreen or IR remote should still be fairly quick unless you
have a huge library. I would think that other interfaces such as iPeng
would also be pretty quick.

Note that "quick" here is still likely to be slower than what you may be
used to when using a regular computer for your server. Which LinkStation
are you using?
