MPD is indeed nice, but not the intended use case here. I don't want to be running it on my server or have anything related to audio playback there. They do indeed index metadata, though I'm not sure what their implementation is like. If you finish your project, drop me a line though - would be curious. ZX2C4 Music handles my 100 gigabyte collection without a hitch, and I'm just using sqlite on my box. If I wanted something more intense, I could run this with PostgreSQL or MySQL or MariaDB or something a little bit better primed for performance (zx2c4 music supports multiple database types out of the box). But, even with sqlite, searches are practically instantaneous.
