Except that it isn't a database, at least not most of the data. Instead, embedded info is parsed from thousands of binary files and put into tabular form on the screen. Even with this inefficiency, it was instantaneously responsive even on my old G4.

I see four possibilities:
* You have extremely high standards for responsiveness
* More ram is needed
* Your music collections rivals that of the library of congress
* Software or hardware on your machine is crunk
