iTunes Smart Playlists can cause slow app loading
Authored by: BMarsh on Jul 11, '04 01:17:10PM

some see this, some don't, it can depend on how many "rules" are used in the smart playlist
the more complex the filtering, and the more files to sort through it will take longer to process.

I thought the smart playlists only did their live updating when clicked on, or something changed (new song added to main library, stuff like that)
to save on speed later it may do an initial calculation, and cache the results so it's faster later on.

(I checked, and in the User Library there isn't a Cache file/folder for iTunes, so a corrupted cache does not seem to be a possible cause)
