My hardware is just commodity x86 stuff. It would seem to me the source of the issue is the processing and/or representation of the music library. Why would 450Gb be a problem?
The size in GB doesn't really matter. What is important is the number of files.
There may be a few links in that tree but nothing excessive. Can this not handle symlinks?
It should. But maybe they're creating loops back, triggering a bug in LMS which would result in a never ending scan?
I'd like to do this: "change the memory settings in the Performance section of the server settings" Can you tell me where to do that so I don't get lost digging?
Shut down LMS. Edit server.prefs (likely in /var/lib/squeezebox/prefs). Set the value for dbhighmem: 2 (assuming you have 1GB of RAM or more).
