There is. I found it long ago.

Have more than one Music Library with less stuff in each one.

I currently have:  
Music - Blues  
Music - Rock  
Music - Smooth Jazz

Very soon I’m going to add two more Genres - when I figure out what they’ll be and things start grinding to a halt. Right now updating is really fast, but should I need to refresh I know it’s gonna take a while. There’s really no ‘work-around’ for it.

When that day comes and I need to refresh I’ll probably [Plex Dance](https://forums.plex.tv/t/the-plex-dance/197064) the entire Music System removing all Music, emptying trash and cleaning bundles. Then create my new and improved Genre structure and start dropping stuff in - some at a time until it’s done. All my stuff is compliant and just drops in without issue (except the 7 or 8 items that for some reason require a Fix Match). It’s not that big a deal. ALL the music has been meticulously created with embedded covers and the appropriate tags in pristine structures with proper names. It’s plug and play all the way - but it will take some time due to the sheer numbers (not as many as some - I’m sure).

Maintaining your Plexiverse sometimes takes some inventive measures and sometimes takes time. That’s just the way it is.

Expecting Plex to do something it doesn’t already do is a dream. If there’s anything you can do as a work-around, you’d better be finding out what it is and doing it.

Plex are the guys that haven’t been interested in fixing a bug so old the work-around has a registered trademark and is drawing social security:

I rest my case.
