Improve Scan Performance

[skrilla 0]

What about multi threaded scanning? I tried switching from plex, I have most of my media on a rclone mount and my library scan for let's say anime took 11 days to complete and watching logs it is only looking at one single file at a time, it will go from 0% to 90% in a few minutes but 91-100 takes over a week for me.. same scan using plex it's pulling 20+ files at once and the scan takes me about 2 days which is a huge difference.. is there any information on this or anything I can do differently?

is now monday and still scanning lol, i tried plex scan concurrently and its started and completed while emby is still chugging along one file at a time, as soon as i start plex scan on rclone logs its fetching many files simultaenously and only looks at a piece of it and moves on, emby seems to download the entire file from the mount before going to the next one, one at a time which is extremely slow, my server can handle many threads is there an option i am missing to speed this up?

@skrillaWe're happy to help suggest ways in which you can speed up your library scans. Can you please attach the emby server log from a recent scan that you felt took too long?
