Hmm, we try to do that incrementally by never letting the database to get
dirty, but that perhaps fails.

Please switch back to the old db and do the following:
1. Post row counts for some important tables: albums, artist, composers,
devices, directories, genres, labels, statistics, tracks, urls, years along
with _expected_ counts (e.g. tracks, urls, statistics should be number of your
collection tracks, artists number of distinct artists etc.; `find
~/path/to/music -type d` may help with dir count)
2. Enable MySQL Slow Query Log [1] with threshold of 1s and zero
min_examined_row_limit. Post the most offending (slow) queries.
