My experience is that SMB performance... sucks. There may be a way to tune it; I've never had to rely on it working well, so I haven't bothered looking it to it. But out of the box performance is pretty awful, substantially slower than local I/O. Have you tried running Slimserver on the same machine as the music? -- snarlydwarf ------------------------------------------------------------------------ snarlydwarf's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1179 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=22612 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
