It's hard to make intelligent comments on this performance without more
information.

How many tracks? What format are they in? What version of the server
are you running?

For comparison, I have about 8500 tracks, all MP3, 1.8GHz processor,
512MB Ram. My library is about 80GB. Last time I did a full scan it
took about 15 minutes I think.

So if I can still do arithmetic this late at night, that's about 550
tracks per minute. Put another way, that's 2ms/track. Seems pretty fast
to me. 

As I recall, and it has been a while since I did a full scan, it
doesn't anywhere near peg the CPU. It's pretty I/O bound. 

I'm running 6.2.2.

Your mileage may vary.
