I changed the filenames of three of my recordings, and ran a scan of the recordings library. They all appeared immediately with just the filename and no metadata. Over half an hour later, one of them finally got metadata and triggered the “media added” notification. As of the time of me posting that log, I was still waiting for the other two items to get their metadata and trigger as added.

All metadata was already present locally, as they'd been scanned in when they were first recorded and I store that data in NFO files with my media. Artwork is also stored with my media. It should not take over half an hour to scan anything in. And, indeed, on all other libraries I've added things to recently scanning things in works almost instantly, even when they're brand new and metadata has to be downloaded.

Do you have video preview thumbnail extraction enabled in the library scan? That could be adding to the time.

I do, but the issue occurs even after renaming existing files. I've turned it off, we'll see.
