Hello, absolute n00b here, recently moved from Plex and running Jellyfin on Synology DSM.
When I tried to add a multi-TB music folder to the library, Jellyfin hogged the server resources for more than 12 hours. I had to kill the Docker container and reinstall from scratch because it had become unresponsive, and the whole server was sluggish too.
I am wondering if there's an existing way to set the scanning "niceness" (a Unix term that means how much OS resources the scanning process is given) ? I don't mind the scanning to go on for days, but I do mind that the server suffers through it.
Thanks!
