Your problem is not related to database or firewall..., it's MP code which handle files in directory and this problem rise if directory have many files. It's solved in 1.2.0Alpha - Beta. Also watch status is rewritten so it should be no problem for slowdowns anymore.

I was pretty sure that this is not related to antivirus or firewall, but have to try it...
Thank you for your reply, but unfortunetaly I cannot confirm that it is solved in 1.2.0 Alpha. Maybe it is better than before, but i still have to wait few tens of seconds.
Do I really have as much files in there? I am just surprised that no other complains....

Sure, here it is: http://jirin.net/download/FolderDatabase3.db3
But now I dont have all my media folders in MP - it was too slow. Anyway, it is so slow even even in this case.

Thx for the file. Yes there nothing strange in shared folders. I can't see anything strange in log

except big delay between reading files and showing items in gui after (there is a many possible hot spots in that process but can't pinpoint delay because there is no any log point there in code). Some of the possible delays can be disconnected network drive but as you wrote that all files are on local disk we can exclude that and huge amount of files in one dir (500+) which cause delay in checking for stacked files (this was resolved for 1.2.0 beta).
If you can wait a little for 1.2.0 Beta (I hope it will be released till the end of this month) and try it to see if there still will be delay I can compile special WindowsPlugin.dll so we can trace the problem. There was a massive changes between 1.2.0 Alpha and current SVN for Beta (especially in file handling and cache) so it is little difficult to guess whats wrong with old version and is that bug still inside.

There is one strange thong for me. Because I have "remember last dir" function switched on, whenever I enter Video from main menu, there is no delay. There is no delay in going through any subfolders. But when I want to go up to the level under Main Menu or down to it from Main Menu, there is the delay as I describe.
For example I have few subfolders under Video folder :
- Series
- HD movies
- DVD movies.
Because it remembers last dir, it put me for example to Video\Series\Simpsons\16. Season\... after entering Video from Main Menu. When I go one level up to Video\Series\Simpsons\... - there is no delay. Again one level up to Video\Series\... - there is no delay. But when I go again one level up to see Video subfolders - big delay.
Anyway thank you for your actual helping, I will try to wait to Beta. Let me know whenever I can help with some testing.

To help is not a problem, I'm extensively using on daily basis My Videos as the only video plugin with fanarts, and with current SVN I don't have any problems with performance. Maybe I missed some strange situation but for now I can't simulate your problem. Let's wait for beta to see if you can, and if your problem is still there it will be much easier to help beacuse I will have new start point. 
for your patience.
for your patience.i dont know how to fix your myvideos issue, but have you considered using the moving pictures plugin for your movies instead, i think you will find it superior to the myvideos for your movie collection
maybe you should also upgrade your mediaportal to 1.1.3 .. your thread says RC3, i dont know what RC3 is but probably not recent.
