Why is Rhytmbox so slow?

Question

linux

Before updating my Ubuntu to version 12.04, I had Banshee as my default audio player, which worked stably and loaded quickly.
In ubuntu 12.04 everything works quickly and well, with the exception of Rhytmbox - it can take about a minute to load - and this is already out of the question. Is it just me that has this problem, or is it a flaw in this player?
It should be noted that my hardware is normal - Intel Core i5 - 2410M, 6GB DDR3 etc.

Answer 1

I had this, didn’t go to Google in 5 seconds, cured:
1. Open Rhythmbox
2. Select from menu: Edit -> Plugins
3. Disable “DAAP Music Sharing” plugin

Answer 2

Maybe something went wrong :). Run from the terminal, see what is written to the console

Answer 3

Hmm, it loads and works very quickly for me, without any brakes. Loading - seconds 2.
The system is similar (only i7). But loading for a minute is definitely overkill, I even worked quickly on an old single-core laptop.

Answer 4

Damn, I wrote in the wrong place, I repeat:
Is the music library local or on a network drive? It also takes a long time to load for me, but I attribute it to the music located on the server in the local area ...

Answer 5

Yes, this is 100% due to access to music files that are already in the library (or if it is set on a folder, then to them), look in this direction.
