Bug Description

Binary package hint: rhythmbox

the programme freezes and fails to respond promptly i have 119141 mp3 files and think this may have somthing to do with it as the cache is quite large. when i load the programme it initially freeses and has no cache there, it then takes upwards of 20 seconds to load the cache (to list of files) then when it does load them it freeses again for a second or so, when i press play on a file it freezes (greyed out) then plays it, then if i select anouther track to play again it freezes. if i select an audio stream it freezes. occasionally searches for a html codac as it cant play that stream after freezing for a while.

i appriciate few people have 80+gb of music (actually lots of people have more) on there local discs (i have 3tb in storage yet dont dare use it as it would freeze and possibly break my machine due to rhythm-box freezing for days possibly weeks trying to load the cache.)

really frustrated.
