500x500 art displays fine for me, and has since before SqueezeCenter was
called SqueezeCenter on Windows, Linux, BSD. Do you have SC7 configured
resize the images itself (I think this is the default)?

I don't have this issue-- actually the opposite with the SC7 web
interface. I have some albums with enormous scanned cover art (e.g.
3000x3000, just so I won't have to go to the trouble to do it again in
the future), the resizing of which causes SC7 to grind to a halt for so
long that the players run out of music (especially reproducible with
high bit rate FLAC tracks) and the stream is interrupted. 

Once SC7 finishes resizing the album art normal play resumes. Haven't
tested in awhile, but when I first encountered this SC7 did this
resizing for each track on an album (all of which share the same
"Folder.jpg" album art).

I see there's a bug request to improve handling of album art so will
just wait to see what happens for now. It is really surprising (in
2008/9) to see that resizing album art seems to block everything in
SC7-- I've happily sworn off Perl for the past 5 years, but am curious
whether SC7 uses any of the modern approaches to process/thread
separation on my dedicated multi-core SC7 system. I've assumed that at
least the HTTP server part of SC7 is reasonably threaded given the
large number of requests each browser must make using the new SC7
default skin, but this sort of issue makes me wonder almost enough to
look at the source.
