Another issue that is not so easy to fix. It would either mean I have
to stop caching artwork  - something that would entirely kill
performance - or re-write caching to a point where I can actively
manage the cache content - something I don't do now.
The problem is that once I do this, it means I have to cache a
different image for every track - even if the actual image is the same
- because they will have different identifiers. Since iPeng uses
differently sized artwork, it also means the server has to CREATE all
these images. Count with a factor of 10 on average.
In any way, this change will have quite an impact on performance so I'm
really reluctant to do that. For longer playlistst this could go as far
as causing playback interruptions on smaller servers.

There are ways around all this (at least around the performance issue
regarding playlists, not around the memory use) but that, again, means
re-writing large parts of the code, I#m not sure when I will do that.
Don't count on it to happen soon.
