Here is a very simple and extremely effective way of speeding up iTunes for Windows users. The process might be slightly different for XP, Vista, and Win7 users, but here is the general

1. Go to the Control Panel.
2. Open "Indexing Options" (you might have to switch to Classic view to see this option)
3. Click the Advanced button.
4. Go the File Types tab
5. Scroll down to the "XML" file extension, uncheck this option, then click ok.
6. Click "Yes" when it asks "Are you sure you want to rebuild the index?"

That's it! Initially your computer might be a little slower while the index is rebuilding, but afterwards iTunes should be much more responsive.

I just disable Indexing full out, it slows down my computer.

Upgrading to version 9 speeded up startup quite a bit for me.

I have NO problem with iTunes on Windows because I don't use it.
