Jaikoz extremely slow at loading tracks

[Ozymandias]

Hi Paul,

Must be Springtime where you are …

OK, I’m setting up my brand new M3 MacBook Pro and had Jaikoz running very well and then it just stopped to a crawl.

I’m sorry I can’t pin the start of this behaviour to any one change I made as I’m currently doing a bazillion number of things, chief amongst them is troubleshooting why Apple’s Music refuses to load … !! Reading a previous answer of yours, no, I have not got the Apple Music options checked in Jaikoz’s settings.

If it loads an album, it won’t load all the tracks and a single album can take 3-4 minutes to load irrespective of whether the music tracks are on my NAS or Desktop.

Also every track loaded has the artwork error graphic showing for every track.

I will attach the support files.

Regards,

Duncan Jones

OK, New Day Dawning - Jaikoz has come good … ??? Working like it should. No idea what the issue was, but it went away. Suspect memory issues but cannot confirm.

So it seems a bug was introduced with Java to do with filesystem. A fix is not available in public release so I need to go back to Java 20 https://jthink.atlassian.net/browse/JAIKOZ-1464
