[slim] performance during scanning (6.1.1)
Hi all yesterday I upgraded to 6.1.1 hoping it would be more stable than the 6.0.x I was running (I'v a SB1 wired), however it didn't improve :-( I set the thing scanning the music library (60+GB), but it was impossible to listen to music while it was doing that, so I had to stop the music (first time that has ever happened with the SB!). On my xosview window there seem to be regular bursts of activity with minor dips (95% full 5% dip) in the CPU0 section (hyperthreading). This is on Mandriva 2005, so it may be that slimserver expects multithreading capability which is disabled in Mandriva's Perl. But I don't see why scanning is done in the same process as the music server And the scanning takes forever, I restarted the server, but it's now used 5 hours of CPU time, that can't be normal! I figure I must be doing something really wrong or it's a bug... Cheers Simon ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Do you have symbolic links or playlists in your music folders? -- Michael --- Help translate SlimServer by using the StringEditor Plugin (http://www.herger.net/slim/) ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss

Do you have symbolic links or playlists in your music folders? no symlinks, but quite a few (old) m3u files in album directories. But I was under the impression that slimserver only looks in its playlist directory for them? Anyway, the slimserver process is still going now at over 11 hours :-( this can't be good... /Simon ___ Discuss mailing list Discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
