It's still a nightmare, I agree, but there are thousands of people out there who use exactly this.

My albums list takes about 10s to load in SqueezePlug. I agree 60s for artists (which is faster than albums) sounds too long for that. But there are people with >100.000 track collections out there. I know of people who run that kind of library from a ResdyNAS. > > As this is a huge mismatch for me it looks like he runs on a hopeless > undersized NAS for his collection. > ReadyNAS. ReadyNAS is hopelessly undersized but I bet it's the most widely used NAS for the Squeezebox. > > Anyway - enough grumbling. > As said caching was the next thing to do anyway. Good choice. I wonder when you will tackle the other big, big issue SqueezePlay IMHO has (and which makes me use it almost never due to complete inconvenience). The last one, btw., I think everything else is about taste, personal preferences and details. ;)
