v3alpha8 is rather slow at startup (compared with v2.01), expecially during its initial read of the database and playlist files.
This looks easy to fix: the player currently reads database and playlist a sector at a time (512 bytes), which is rather inefficient. Simply switching to a larger buffer size (eg. 4096) should greatly improve the startup time.
Thought I might bring this up again. I'm really very happy with v3a8, especially after having had a memory upgrade, but this slow startup is what's really bugging me. It takes 1:25 before I get sound.
It has been suggested to just binary edit the player binary to get around this. Has anyone looked into this? Can this be done without overflowing a static buffer?
