Default Library painfully slow, but it didn't used to be, why?

Hey all,
Sorry if this question has been answered before. I did a quick search, but didn't find appropriate results.

My music library seems to reset itself every time I start Limewire. Well, it remembers the shared folder, but seems to have to churn through each and every song every time.

I have 5000+ songs, and it takes limewire 1-2 secs. to recognise to be able to share 1 song. This adds up since it attempts to share all 5000+ songs. This keeps my hard drive very busy, not good.

But this didn't used to be a problem. It used to be able to find and share my files by the hundreds per second.

My only solution is to not share songs. But this seems to defeat the purpose of Limewire, and would be counter-productive to the PtP community. And that's 25 Gigs you woun't have access to.

PowerBook 800
OS X 10.1
512 MB RAM
Limewire 2.8.5

Thanks,
Desprez
