With all this information, how do you explain that I've got a wired squezeboxG and a 100mb switched environment, all FLACs, that play all day long with no skips or dropouts, all powered from a lowly PIII 800Mhz box with 512mb of ram and 4x250gb drives, all LVM'd together for about 1tb of space? Your machine is definitely got more "oomph" than mine, yet I've got no problems. I had a party a couple weeks ago, and using the latest nightly of the 5.4.1 branch (don't remember the day - maybe 3/11?) without a single problem.
