Which version were you using previously and on which platform? Are your music files on a local disk or accessed across a network?

How did you install 0.8.5.3? If you did this in a way that deleted the MinimServer cache files that were created by the previous version, this would explain the much slower rescan performance.

Hi, Simon,
The version I am using is a test build you gave me to overcome a bout of Java heap space problems I was experiencing. You supplied it to me on 11/12/2017. It is installed on a ReadyNAS NV2+ on which my music files are stored. The NAS is on a network.

I installed the upgrade after down loading it and hitting the Run button.
