I have a similar sized library and am running 6.2.1 on the readyNAS
itself - I don't find it too slow (no RAM upgrade either).  There are
certainly pauses when you do certain things but they are generally < 2
seconds and I can't say they really bother me.

I guess it depends how you listen to music - I either just random play
songs, or I tend to listen to all music by a particular artist.  Works
well enoiugh for me.  Oh, I also use the New Music thing a lot and that
also works well.

If I were zipping around looking for lots of different tracks it might
well bother me (but I would jsut do that on a PC or using moose).  It
would be easy enough to run slimserver on a connected PC and then I'm
pretyy sure there would be no slowness at all.  But I like having the
NAS, means I can listen to music without going down to the office in
the morning and booting a PC, and it uses WAY less power than my PCs as
well.

An ideal situation would be the squeezebox preferentially selecting
from a list of available slimservers so it would choose the PC if that
was running, otherwise go to the NAS slimserver if not.

Hmmm, might start a thread about that.
