10.11 first library scan will take AGES because of the new db changes or something. My library is huge (~100tb of media) and it took days. Subsequent scans are much faster, like 10-12 minutes on 10th gen Xeon (roughly i5 equivalent) for a full library scan.
Ok, I don’t have anywhere near that amount of media, but MythTV takes seconds to rescan ~2TB of videos and maybe a minute to get any missing details like fanart, etc.
Similar amount for music - but I feed it the files after I’ve run them through Picard.
I’ve not done a complete rescan of eveything for ages, but from memory it’s like an hour absolute tops. More like ~30 mins.
And that’s on an underclocked CPU (for quietness).

Wow.
