In fact I run no cronjobs at all, but if things are
given the right
permission and set propper through PAM there should be no problem
running a script as long as it has lower priority as your music
application as I see it. But thanks for the advise anyway.

There is a horrible, at least it was horrible, cron job

probably turn it off, since it scans the whole HD
usually once a day. You can try to run it manually
to see what happens: "slocate -u" (as root)
