UI blocks during scan of many files

    • Type: Bug
    • Resolution: Fixed
    • Priority: Normal
    • 3.0.0b3
    • Affects Version/s: None
    • Component/s: User Interface
    • None
    • Environment:
      Win 10/11.
      Intel 255HX and Intel 8750H

       UI thread being blocked by the matching/scanning process really needs to be fixed. it makes the entire app completely unusable till all files are complete. I cant even scroll or click anywhere without a 10 second delay.
       
      Context:
      about 2000 (40gb) singleton FLAC files (all in the same directory. not put into artist sub folders or anything like that). all files have a lot of embedded info already like covert art and MB tags as well as already containing fingerprints.
       
      This happens across my 2 windows devices on windows 10 and win 11. Happens on Picard 2 and Picard 3. 
      Uploaded file shows what I experience. Video is not slowed. that's actually how bad it is for me
