Itunes takes 10 minutes to open my library

When I run iTunes, performance is painfully slow compared to my previous setup, a 3-year-old Dell core 2 duo with an internal hard drive that was large enough to hold the iTunes library. I'm guessing that some of you are in the same boat, especially if your SSD is 128gb or smaller. I have a huge iTunes library, which I keep on an external USB drive, and only run iTunes when this drive is plugged in.
