Facts about my system

- Newly installed windows xp on decent workstation.
- Newly installed Slimserver (6.3.1).
- Only 600 mp3 files (rescanning now for the second time after beeing
moved).
- No itunes.

Slim.exe has now been running for 1-2 hours at 99% cpu, with a peak
physical memory usage of 235 mb (and counting), and an average of about
200 mb. 

What the hell is wrong? How hard is it to read 600 mp3 files and their
ID3 info? I suggest that the Slimserver dev team give this job to
someone other than the summer intern.

Keep in mind that this is a product meant to be run on any desktop, and
that it totaly dominates the user environment by stealing all cpu.
Perhaps the developers could learn something from desktop search
products (such as google desktop), by only using cpu when the user is
not interaction with the system. The manual clearly states that
requirements for slimserver is 256 mb of ram. Well, that leaves 20 mb
for my windows, and the rest of my apps. Hey...peak is now 245
mb...make that 10 mb.
