Too many pictures?
Gis Bun 28th Jun 2010
Don't you just love how you have to remove pictures from a library in order to speed it up?
iPhoto happens to be a database of sometimes huge files, depending on the camera you use. It wasn't all that long ago that maintaining any kind of database with a few thousand files in it took a while to sort/review/display. I haven't noticed any significant speed difference from any other app with a duplicate set of the same files.

Not really

Any modern (and by modern, I mean in the last 12 years) database should not have a problem with record numbers. And the contents of a record should not cause issues unless that record is retrieved.

Perhaps iPhoto uses an access database? (That would be funny)
