Do you still see that? Where are you located?

There should not be any ickStream specific buffering issues anymore.

In the beginning there was an issue with TIDAL using wrong streaming
servers when streams were requested by us because the requests were not
coming directly from the server. But when TIDAL rolled out their new CDN
a few weeks ago this should have been fixed and actually we haven't
really seen specific cases since then.

I have seen a few cases with stuttering, too, but in all of these cases
TIDAL's app and especially web interface were similarly affected.

There is one risk remaining: especially the old Squeezebox models have a
rather small internal buffer so they are a bit more sensitive against
unstable connections compared to especially the smartphone Apps (but
TIDAL's web interface for me always was even more sensitive). 
The Touch should be much less affected, though.

distribution, these things usually take a lot of tweaking until they are
really good under all conditions.

But from what I know I see no reason why there should be ickStream
specific performance issues. We also no longer have performance issues
on our service itself. We had some, especially on weekends, in the
beginning but these are fixed now, we haven't seen a lockup or
performance issue in several weeks now,
