I tred plugging my usb HDD directly into the Touch...
to be honest I felt teh performance was a wee bit slow, especially when
dealing with playlists..
I didnt have ay of Erlands plugins installed
I was using 7.5
I know 7.6 expects some performance enhancements over 7.5...does this
apply to

How did you find the 7.6 nightly compared to 7.5 performance wise?
Any difference?
Scanning performance with 7.6 is much faster (two to three times) if
you use SQLite as the database engine (now the default in 7.6).
Performance in other tasks feels pretty much the same.
7.6 sounds good, but maybe not QUITE ready for use yet?
How can I use SQLite instead of MySql with ver. 7.5?
Sounds as though it might go some wat to reduce performance issues Im
having?
Thanks.

The foreign character bug exists in 7.5 and caught me out with some

Have we seen any feedback from some of the heavy users? 200-300.000

I suspect that large libraries might be unusable with some menus
provided through Custom Scan/Custom Browse, at least with MySQL. I also
know Custom Scan can get really slow
Thanks John,
so the built in server is by default off until you plug something
into the Touch?
Wonder if maybe I've spoken too soon actually...
I have a 500odd track playlist which my Touch is having problems
playing..
Selecting the playlist to play all so to speak can take a few minutes

Information about SBS plugins
http://wiki.slimdevices.com/index.php/SqueezeCenter_Plugins
Actually I have not gone through all the plugins on my server yet.
I have removed the obvious plugins and stripped Win7 a bit. It is only
used for SBS so there are no other applications installed.

I'm running sbs (7.5) on an single core Atom Whs (1,6Ghz, 2GB RAM). And
I also like the idea of using the touch's internal server. At it's
current state, its performance and stability is miles away from the
atom and that stopped me from following that idea very soon.
Besides, I don't want to
Are you using the mysql that comes with SBS?
In that case you might be able to gain a little by doing this

Are there anything unusual in the server or scanner logfiles? errors?

Unless when you are scanning then 90% is the norm, it scans as fast as
it can using the resources available.
Or do you need to transcode, then it could be high.

As already mentioned, something has to be wrong if it's continuously

if you are measuring while

You know what?
7.5 seems to run a LOT sweeter than 7.4 did.
Currently scanning my library, mysqld at 14 percent CPU load,

More efficient coding maybe? A bugfix?

The builtin server starts up whenever you plug in a USB drive (or SD
