[SlimDevices: Beta] Performance changes...

[JoelShepp]

Hello,

Recently received the SqueezeBox 3 and have some suggestions for
performance gains:

Go multi-threaded.  I see only one thread running for scanner.exe

Rescanning new music - Can you possibly create a delta in the DB and
then spawn a couple of theads to look for changes by... date maybe ...
comparing that to the delta... then only going to a deeper scan of a
dir or dirs if the modified date/create date is changed or new based on
the delta...

Allow users to point to a new folder/files using a more manual method
of updating their libraries.   That would also aid in performance, as a
new CD would not force one to rescan their entire library.

Allow importing of a text file (say comma seperated) to import new
files.

Just a few thoughts after a week with this awesome addition to my
arsenal.

If there's anyway you can make it so I can run the slim server off my
Buffalo terastation pro without having a computer running (to run slim
server) that would be sweet... ;-)

Cheers!
