Extremely long media library scan and slow unresponsive apps

[phi303 14]

i'm also having an issue, scan is nice and quick until it gets to 88.9% then it hangs for about 5 hours before completion (log attached when it 88.9%)

It appears you are generating intro video markers along with the library scan, that can take a long time depending of the number of video files it needs to scan.

Try setting the intro video markers as a scheduled task only (on the tvshows libraries settings), then try doing a scan and see how it compares.

HI, increasing those values can improve the performance of the server.
