I've rerun a similar type of test with r7430 (I'd backed out the patch to HTTP.pm so it was unmodified from the Subversion version). As before the server is a lowly 460MHz PentiumII running Gentoo Linux, with MySQL as the database server. I have an SB1(G). The music is all streaming in PCM (from FLAC) over wireless (802.11b). I've not snipped any lines out of the log this time - this should be complete for the actions I was performing. I've attached an annotated version of that log. In summary, it seems to be much better. I only got it to drop out when initiating a "browse albums" from the web interface - this happened a couple of times. I couldn't get it to drop out when doing anything else, and this was while using the web interface quite heavily while playing. Looking at the log, the only warnings now >0.5s were in Slim::Web::HTTP::processHTTP and Slim::Control::Commands::playlistXtracksCommand. There were no warnings about saving the prefs, so those recent changes seemed to have done the trick (by the way, I had to delete my old prefs as the server kept complaining they were corrupt - presumably because of the different choice of YAML module, but it didn't handle the upgrade very gracefully). On the basis of this performance I'm now very happy with it - whereas previously I'd avoid using the web interface because of the dropouts, I am now confident enough to use it. Thanks very much for the improvements - I'm sure they'll benefit a lot of people. If you want me to do any further testing then just say what you'd like done. +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ |Filename: 7430.txt | |Download: http://forums.slimdevices.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=1338| +-------------------------------------------------------------------+ -- hickinbottoms Stuart -"Never put off until tomorrow what you can put off until the day after - with Lazy Searching!"- ------------------------------------------------------------------------ hickinbottoms's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=255 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=23641 _______________________________________________ beta mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/beta
