This is very similar to my experience of SlimServer. As my library has grown the performance has decreased, this with a SB1 and a SB2 (library currently consists of 800 flac albums). I was hoping that the addition of the database with version 6 might sort out my performance problems, but instead they have just got worse. The differences between your experience and mine is that I never receive the "Can't locate SlimServer" message and that I can sometimes wait for over a minute for it to list albums/artists/tracks. What is interesting is that performance varies, sometimes it can list stuff quickly, but this is rare (and never when I am in a hurry). I have used four different Windows XP machines for SlimServer, the last one being a 3.5ghz, 1gb RAM machine. The perfomance on all of them has been similarly deplorable. I am currently using 6.1.1. I have also used three different wireless networks. In desperation I am now using a wired network, but perfomance has not increased. I mainly use the remote.
