Initial scan taking too long [#21916]

Post by SgtPepperman »

It's me again

Due to some Google Drive antics on my files, I programmed MM 2024 to scan my files when I first open the program as you can see:

That first scan is taking now about one and a half hours. That's something never happened before.
I'm using MM 2024.2.1.3200

This is my database configuration:

EDIT: Returned to 2024.2.0.3184, and it does it quite faster (about less than 1 min). I'm going to stuck with it in the meantime.

I'm also getting very slow scans in 3200, this was not happening in earlier betas. Used to be much, much faster.

This is expexted due to a change how Artwork is scanned. This is still being fine tuned for a final 2024.2.1 release.

This should be resolved in build 3201. Can you confirm that it works for you?

Yes, much improved.

Test folder contained 10,788 files and 3200 took 18 min 36 sec to scan. Same folder in 3201 now takes 3 min 28 sec.

The test folder is one I haven't changed anything in for quite sometime and the 18 min scan was a re-scan from a couple days earlier. I did not note the time on that first scan, but it's where I first noticed the scan time taking much longer.

Given the size of my collection (+100k tracks), it takes a while, but it reduced to about 45 min to 1 hour (which I personally think is still quite long), so definitely there's an improvement there on 3200.
