Quite by accident I found a way to significantly reduce the time it takes for iTunes to read a changed iTunes Library.itl file. If the network drive with your music files is unmounted when you open iTunes, the library is quickly updated (about 10 seconds for my 25MB library) but you'll get the ! character next to every song (because iTunes can't file the file). Close iTunes, mount the network directory, and reopen iTunes. Now 50 minutes of scanning is reduced to 20 seconds.
