I was looking at some profiling outputs and Strawberry does so much more on startup. (click to see interactive svg)
I tried making callgrind profiles but couldn't get it working. Clementine starts up instant where strawberry takes seconds.

Slow startup and indexing compared to Clementineposted in Technical Help
Hey there,
I love this player and for years I've been trying to find an alternative but 'nothing compares'.
Now for my issue. I've been checking in with this project last couple of years but on different computers running different flavors of Linux, using SMB or NFS, Strawberry is noticeably slower.
It takes much longer for Strawberry to start up. It takes a bit longer to index, or at least it takes more time before I start seeing the percentage stage of the indexing.
I've tried setting big cache sizes and tinkering with other settings to no avail. Feels like I might be missing something?
Strawberry 1.2.13
Linux 6.12.49 #1-NixOS
