That'd be the report to moderator button! ;)

In fact, aside from encouragement (that's the only way I think I'm qualified to help), my biggest reason to replay is to sucbscribe to this thread.
So I hope you post back when you have any information.

Also, it's probably a better idea to subscribe/watch the flyspray task rather than watching this thread, since when I submit an updated patch there, there is really no reason for me to keep replying myself on this thread.

I also tried reading the database (course it was tagcache back then)
http://www.rockbox.org/tracker/task/6084
The performance was abysmal. Never found a good way to improve it... my patch died due to a lack of interest and way to proceed... I hope you can do better :)

Yeah, I don't know why the tagcache searches for known filenames are so slow. I can think of a much faster way to deal with this, but it is much more complicated:
1. If a playlist is not dynamic (already existing), then try to display title only if the playlist is EXTM3U
2. If a playlist is dynamic:
1. if initiated from filebrowser, set up a tagcache search based on a "containing" clause of the dir name and retrieve the entries, which should be fast since the current database tagtree works this way and it is quite fast.
2. if initiated from database, use the same tagcache search used by tagtree to retrieve needed information.
And for both ways I need to figure out where to put the information - either save a temp file in EXTM3U format for the dynamic playlist or save the tagcache search struct inside the playlist struct.
But I need in depth reading of both the tagcache and playlist code first, and I probably won't have much time at this moment....
