Some more numbers for comparison.
My RPi 4 4GB arrived yesterday, so I've had a play with it this evening. I've done a direct comparison against a 3B+. I installed stretch-lite on the 3B+ and buster-lite on the 4. I did a bare minimum install of LMS 7.9.2, with only the default plugins. I used a Sandisk SSD with a USB3 interface adapter. With the 3B+, a 'clear and rescan' took 6 minutes 30 seconds: [image: http://www.cjh.me.uk/MyPhotobucket/cache/DIYHifi/RPi3Bplus%20Music%20Scan_800.jpg] On the 4, with the SSD connected to one of the USB2 sockets, this came down to 4:09*: [image: http://www.cjh.me.uk/MyPhotobucket/cache/DIYHifi/RPi4%20USB2%20Music%20Scan_800.jpg] And with the SSD connected to one of the USB3 sockets, this came down to 3:52: [image: http://www.cjh.me.uk/MyPhotobucket/cache/DIYHifi/RPi4%20USB3%20Music%20Scan_800.jpg] *I'm a bit puzzled by the 'Find updated coverart files' step in the RPi4 USB2 case - I though that was the MAI plugin, but that's definitely not loaded. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=110690 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/discuss
