Bugs / Re: Slow scanning even with cache

The slowing down also applies to me. First some 1000 are quite slow, then at let's say 10000 its 1 song per second.
I guess similarity has to compare each file against each other meaning time effort is proportional to faculity of n (N!)?
I also have the feeling that the cache does not speed up too much.
ALSO another question on the cache:
1) does it slow down if there are too many item in the cache that do not exist anymore? AND
2) if so maybe a function like "delete cache items that do not exist anymore" would be nice
3) I have the feeling that the cache is relating to absolute paths of the files. Everytime there is a changed folder name all files below that folder are lost in the cache. Maybe the cache could refer to some other file properties like a hash, checksum ect. or name, size and date?
