Public bug reported:
Since I updated to 13.10, rhythmbox is not usable. After it starts, it
freezes on every mouse click on different panes, sometimes it recovers,
sometimes it stays apparently forever "gray", and the dialog to "wait or
kill" appears.
When I arrive to the point where I can "play", it remains unresponsive
and I cannot stop playing or switch songs. This was not happening since
I upgraded from 13.04 last week.
Example output when I start it from command line:

at this stage it has remained gray and unresponsive for more than 2
minutes and I don't know how to play music. I have a big collection
(almost 20000 songs), and rhythmbox has remained my player of choice for
its ability to handle this, but it is slowly changing (in 13.04 it was
very slow when it loosed and regained focus, like 10 seconds at 100%
CPU every time. Now it seems to last forever with 100% CPU...
I can help with debugging, I'm a software developer. The machine where I
run it right now is an i7 with 4 cores, 8GB RAM and a fast SSD, so
performance should not be an issue. The same music collection was way
faster in 12.04 or 12.10...
In 13.04 rhythmbox also stopped showing the performance year, which is
still there in the metadata. This is a separate bug that has not been
fixed in 13.10 :(
