Rhythmbox search very slow - 100% CPU

[Russell Wing]

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

Using the search dialog in Rhythmbox results in very slow response (sometimes complete hang), and 100% CPU utilisation. I have approx 9000 tracks (60GB) of mp3 registered.
The problem is the same whether you search by All, Artists or Albums.
I am using Hardy (8.04) fully patched to latest level.

thank you for your bug report, how slow is it exactly? how fast is your box?

Machine is Sempron 3000+, 2GB RAM, generally runs at a decent speed.
Takes 30s - many minutes to return from search.
Regards,
Russ.

not confirming, could you open your bug on bugzilla.gnome.org, it's not likely anybody will work on that in an ubuntu specific way especially that you are the first to complain about this issue

I have opened at bugzilla.gnome.org here:
