Application launch load time (amarok 2) Ubuntu Jaunty Package

[proxiziac]

Binary package hint: amarok

With 40000 + tracks it takes about 5 minutes for amarok 2 to load and the splash image blocks the view to other applications.

( splash image should be displayed for a finite time and should not wait for the application to load )

Bug fix / Improvement needed

Intel Core 2 duro e6400 2.17 ghz
4 gigs of ram

[proxiziac (dave-feeditout)]

added sql database for testing purposes

I hope that I help somebody

[Andrew Ash (ash211)]

Thanks for the bug report, proxiziac. When you say there are 40000 tracks, is that in the collection, or the playlist, or where? Please upgrade to the latest version of Amarok[1] and report back with a more detailed description of where the 40000 are.

Thanks!

I've about 8000 track in my playlist. loading of amarok2 takes about 3-4 minutes to start with tonns of messgaes like:
TagLib: MPEG::Header::parse() -- Invalid sample rate.
or
TagLib: MPEG::Header::parse() -- First byte did not match MPEG synch.

[Myriam Schweingruber (myriam)]

This is already solved in Amarok 2.2.1.

[Myriam Schweingruber (myriam)]

This is solved in Amarok 2.2.1

[Fukurokudzu (sergei-fukurokudzu)]

omg, i'm sorry so. using the latest version in kubuntu now.

[Fukurokudzu (sergei-fukurokudzu)]

i'm sorry, but now i have amarok 2.2.1 from Karmic PPA1 and the problem is still there =(
amd64, if that matters.

[Valdas (jvaldas)]

 This problem also persist In my system : Amarok with ~500 mp3 songs in playlist takes several minutes to load at fresh system bootup. If I restart Amarok or relogon then Amarok starts immediately.

System:
Kubuntu 9.10, i386
$cat /proc/version
Linux version 2.6.31-17-generic (buildd@palmer) (gcc version 4.4.1 (Ubuntu 4.4.1-4ubuntu8) ) #54-Ubuntu SMP Thu Dec 10 16:20:31 UTC 2009

Amarok v2.2.2

[Valdas (jvaldas)]

Addition to comment #11: when I start Amarok in console at bootup get:

Exactly same errors with me

AMD64
Using Ubuntu 10.04 64bit
Amarok 2.3.0 (actually not using, cause it crashes completely at 11000 tracks if I want to scan entire collection)
Collection about 30.000 tracks (ogg, mp3, flac, you name it)
Longest playlist file about 100 tracks

Other than comment #11. My Amarok startup stays slow.

[Glucose Grin (glucosegrin)]

Ubuntu 10.04.1 LTS
2.6.32-24-generic-pae
Qt: 4.7.0
KDE Development Platform: 4.4.92 (KDE 4.4.92 (KDE 4.5 RC2))
Amarok: 2.3.1.90

Intel core2 duo 1.8, 4Gb ram.

Same problem here...
My music files are stored on a NAS box over 100BASE-TX.
The slowdown on my end consists of ten minutes of "TagLib: MPEG::Header::parse() -- Invalid sample rate.", about one line every 5 seconds. With 10,058 tracks loading into a single playlist, mix of MP3 and FLAC files.

Once the console prints "amarok(28859)/kdecore (KConfigSkeleton) KCoreConfigSkeleton::writeConfig:", speed is normal.

When I re-run Amarok a second tome (with --debug again) it writes "amarok: not a track no match" a few thousand times, I'm guessing once for every track I have.

Then it does every file again with
"amarok: [CUEFILE]: "/media/nas/Music/Music/Artist/Album/Track.cue" - Shoot blindly and missed, searching for other cue files.
amarok: [CUEFILE]: - Didn't find any matching cue file.
"
where Artist/Album/Track represent actual filenames (each one, one by one), only I do not have any .cue files.

After all that, here:
amarok: BEGIN: virtual void Playlist::InsertTracksCmd::redo()
amarok: BEGIN: void Playlist::Model::setAllNewlyAddedToUnplayed()
amarok: END__: void Playlist::Model::setAllNewlyAddedToUnplayed() - Took 6.5e-05s
amarok: BEGIN: void StatusBar::updateTotalPlaylistLength()
amarok: END__: void StatusBar::updateTotalPlaylistLength() - Took 0.0081s
amarok: END__: virtual void Playlist::InsertTracksCmd::redo() - DELAY Took (quite long) 5.7s
amarok: END__: void Playlist::Controller::insertTracks(int, Meta::TrackList) - DELAY Took (quite long) 1.8e+02s

amarok: END__: void Playlist::Actions::restoreDefaultPlaylist() - DELAY Took (quite long) 4.1e+02s
amarok: END__: Playlist::Actions::Actions() - DELAY Took (quite long) 4.1e+02s

Quite long. 6 minutes, 40 seconds.

Thanks for reporting this bug.

Could you please try to reproduce this bug with Kubuntu 11.04 or the current developer version of Kubuntu?

Problem occured for me in UBUNTU 12.04, did not have that before. Takes 5-10 min for amarok to start up. In 11.10 it was about 30 sec.
In command line slowly appearing lots and lots of lines before startup finished.
