Hi @Frans_Devies,
Thank you for your report.
Our diagnostics servers indicate that you’re hosting a Roon library with approximately 228,000 tracks on a machine with an i3 core and about 4GB of RAM.
With a 228k track library, this machine is simply underpowered for your Roon database. To manage the metadata object graph at this scale, Roon needs significantly more memory and CPU headroom. 4GB of available RAM with an i3 will impose a low ceiling for procesing and RAM; this will lead to slow loading, laggy browsing, and delayed searches, as well as dropouts during playback. Background indexing and audio analysis won’t have sufficient resources to complete.
You can try small mitigations like removing part of your library, scheduling background work, or disabling MUSE, but you’ll really need a more powerful machine to host this library.
For a library at this size, we generally recommend a silicon or i7/i9 Mac Mini. Please see here for our hardware recommendations:
Let us know if we can answer any questions. Thank you.
