I confirm this as well, same thing here, all started after upgrading to Quantal also with large collection (~200GB).
Got my collection mounted from my NAS through fstab, first I thought this was the issue because noticed the 'sambafs' got deprecated and replaced by 'cifs' in 12.10. So tried nfs/cifs and some other mount options, but that doesn't seem to be the problem, mounts are readable and writable.
When rhytmbox is started with: rhythmbox --debug
It will freeze for a short while to be fully functional after. Until I close it again and try to start it normally, it will freeze up again and won't comeback. Tryed to let it run for a 1hr+ but doesn't come back anymore.
Noticed that even sometimes with the --debug parameter it seems to random freeze up while doing the following:
[0x1217f20] [rhythmdb_add_uri_with_types] rhythmdb.c:2996: queueing stat for "file:///media/Music/xxx"
(Btw there is a typo there queueing -> queuing)
Clearing out ~/.local/share/rhythmbox, will make rhythmbox box start and work properly until it has been closed again and you restart it, it will freeze up again.
Even though clearing out my ~/.local/share/rhythmbox is not really an option, because I don't want to loose my ratings in rhythmdb.xml!
