Slow iTunes Response with Network Located Music

So I sourced this information from another site, it was referencing iTunes 8.x, however I am using 10.2.

My problem:
Slow response to starting/stopping application, as well as initiating playback

Setup:
iTunes music stored on FreeNAS box, one iTunes users DB is remote, the others is local.

Solution:
Disable unrequired display columns:

iTunes Columns

Removing unused smart-playlists.
Disabling live updating of playlists:

Playlist Settings

 Disable looking for shared services:

• Libraries



Shared Setting

• Remotes/Speakers

iTunes Preferences

Outcome:
SUCCESS - I have seen a noticable improvement in my iTunes performance for both users.
