Put your database on a solid-state disk.  That's what I've done and
it's über-responsive from the Logitech Controller, even using a little
'underpowered' HP thin client as my server.

Using a NAS as the server really isn't ideal as there's way too little
memory and CPU for the task at hand, and it's kind of a shame that
Logitech endorse it since it can lead to frustration at poor
performance.

Do you really think that anybody who worries about not having a
Logitech-packaged server device is going to actually understand that
it's only a TCP/IP connection to their disk storage though, so that
won't be a worry?

I'd say that either they're technically savvy or not.
