Thanks., the reason I asked for all of this is because now I (and others) can take this post as a point of further deduction.

Hey @Kibje, just checking if you (or anybody else) has any other suggestions for me to try to solve this problem? If not I'm gonna try to rebuild the db a few different ways this weekend. First, blowing everything out and adding everything back in w/o scan recursively checked, then if that doesn't work (as I expect it won't) adding each source individually w/o mysql.

create a new group, add all users that need access there to it, then chown the lot with group set as that group.

It is because you have it set up to check for actors
Settings -> Video -> Library -> "Download actor thumbnails when adding to the library".

Well, i've been here before so I'm going to temper my excitement but I seem to be out of the woods. I, again, blew out all the db's (from userdata and MySQL) and reloaded the TV Shows back in (now with Download Actor Thumbnails unchecked). This afternoon when I checked it (and it was done Refreshing all paths) I attempted a manual Library Update and did NOT experience the 1-2 minute "freeze". I can definitely live without actor thumbnails, so now I begin the terrifying task of adding back in all my plugins. Thanks to everyone for all your help!

I tried loading my movies/TV Shows in without the MySQL issue and when I did manual updates did NOT cause the 30-50 second "freeze" of xbmc. So the issue is somewhere in there but I really don't know how to trouble shoot from there...
