I did a test with a laptop (XP sp2 512Mbram 1.7GHz single core no HT) which is similar to the OP systems and I saw the network test issue. The SB and laptop are wired through a switch so minimal router issues and no wireless.
Without pipelining enabled - network test was consiustent only 94-96% throughput - with pipelining the throughput was mainly 100% with occasional 98%. Further testing is needed to see if it is really helping or just a one-off. The pipelining feature will only improve responsiveness for sites using http 1.1 so it will only affect cbeebies and not slimserver. If pipeling helps, then I think the problem is firefox has many network requests waiting for responses from remote sites. Perhaps the queue of requests on a single core systems is somehow blocking the network interface and so affecting slimserver. -- bpa ------------------------------------------------------------------------ bpa's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1806 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=38571 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
