If the UI would appear to hang every minute or so, that was probably due
to the periodic library/iradio/playlist saving.  I've removed that now
in CVS.  I don't think it's needed as much anymore since Rhythmbox is
more reliable.

However James Kahn did some work to move it to another thread, hopefully
he'll be able to get that going soon.
