LRCGET crashes when scanning very large folders #139

I've found that if I try to scan a huge folder, LRCGET crashes during the scan. I'm not sure what the exact threshold is where it crashes, but it's somewhere between 10,000 and 30,000 files I think. I can get to the "Initializing Library - ###/### scanned" but after a while it slows down considerably then eventually crashes, giving an out of memory error message. I'm using LRCGET right now but when I'm done I'll set it running on a large folder and get a screenshot.

I don't think it's actually running out of physical memory to use, as I rarely see the program go above 30MB RAM usage in Task Manager.

Side note, to get around the crashing, when I need to tag a lot of files, I will put a bunch of folders into a parent folder so I can just select the parent folder to scan instead of individually selecting all the subfolders. It would be nice if in the folder selection dialog we could select more than one folder at a time instead.

Idk if LRCGET keeps logs anywhere, but if someone lets me know where they are I can upload those too.
