[Remix] Long delay between tapping a song and showing the "Now playing" view

Thanks David! Are you running with a previously generated click package or from the remix branch? If the latter, which bzr revision?

I can confirm this issue, basically when on the songs tab (or anywhere with a large amount of items) if you select a track to play there is a pause while it pushes the items onto the trackQueue. Maybe we should look at that trackQueue workerscript branch I started investigating before the remix.

Hi Victor,

I've prefixed the bug title with [Remix] to indicate I'm reporting it
against the remix branch. As per the revision, I built a click from trunk
and manually installed after I saw all the good work you guys had landed
this morning :)

So the version is 1.3.713 (i.e. r713)

Cheers,
David.
