Just in case some people would have overlooked this, a bug in the
database has recently been fixed
(http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=84931), and it makes a
HUGE difference for those using TinySB with a big collection of music.

AFAIC, I have approximately 1900 albums / 600 Gb of music (all flac
files), and I had lots of problems when using TinySB : rebuffering at
the beggining of 1st track of an album or when changing tracks, 24/96
files with constant rebuffering, very slow navigation in the menus, use
of the controller with the SBT nearly impossible, etc.

With this bug fix, after a complete wipe & rescan, ALL OF THESE
PROBLEMS ARE COMPLETELY GONE : it is now a real pleasure to use TinySB
!

The fix is currently available in the 7.6 beta branch, but is not yet
in the standard branch official version (7.5.3), and neither in the
unofficial 7.5.4, but there is apparently a possibility to "force" it
manually in the Touch via a .bin file
(http://forums.slimdevices.com/showpost.php?p=609402&postcount=16), to
make it available in the 7.5 branch.

For those who do not want to take the plunge in the "unstable" 7.6 beta
version, and do not want to take the manual update route, we can hope
that the 7.5.4 will soon be officially released, and have this bug
definitely fixed...

Too bad this optimization wasn't done earlier !
