iTunes slower on Windows

I love iTunes. It’s a great program to manage my music with. It has a great interface, and a beautiful layout. But I have noticed a HUGE difference between its performance on Windows and Mac. Is some of it due to that fact that my computer is 3 almost 4 years old, and that the Mac in question is not even a year old? Maybe.

But I seriously believe that iTunes performs better and faster on a Mac. Is that unfair yes? Is it wrong? Not really. Of course iTunes is faster on a Mac, it’s by Apple and it’s hard to just “convert” a program to another platform. But still, sometimes I wonder what it would be like if iTunes just worked faster, My main problem is scrolling, it’s anything but smooth. And then, when I have a bunch of other programs open, it’s basic functions like playing a stoping songs turn super-slow.

Has anyone else noticed a difference in speed between the Mac and Windows version of iTunes?
