I have a similar arrangement, running slimserver 6.5.1 on a gigabit LinkStation with 4000 tracks (3978 to be exact). I get pretty much instantaneous response with the SB remote, whereas the web UI is sluggish. It's not quite as bad as the 10 seconds you cite, but it's slow.
Rendering those pages for the web UI puts a fair strain on the LinkStation processor. If that's where you're having the delays, you can possibly reduce them by using a minimalist skin like "Handheld". If you're getting such long browse times with the remote then something is definitely wrong, although I don't know where to steer you from there. As a side note, I could be wrong, but I think you'll always find "Browse music folder" to be slower because it's not using the MySQL database built from the tag info. It's traversing the directory tree. -- aubuti ------------------------------------------------------------------------ aubuti's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=2074 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=34047 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
