Very similar problem. Feisty with all updates applied as of 16 March
2007. The music collection is 11,000 MP3s, 80Gb on a Samba share on a
Linksys Slug. Rhythmbox hangs during startup when the collection check
reaches around either 2048 or 4096 songs. Kill it, Delete the XML files
and it then starts fine. Run the scan and it completes. Close down and
restart rhythmbox and it again hangs at around the same place. Under
Edgy, Rhythmbox managed fine, scanning the same library and restarting
fine after the library has been scanned.

On Edgy I had perhaps similar problems with Amarok refusing to fully
scan the whole library. Under Feisty this seems to be cured but now
Rhythmbox has caught the cold. I wonder if this is all related to libtag
(or is it taglib).
