But ... to get the ball rolling.... Memory is likely to be at least a part of the problem with slimserver on a linkstation.
So here are some ideas. I haven't tried any of them, so take with a grain of caution (and salt). You can cut back on the memory footprint by using the following options on the line that starts slimserver: --httpport => Activate the web interface on the specified port. Set to 0 in order disable the web server. --cliport => Activate the command line interface TCP/IP interface on the specified port. Set to 0 in order disable the command line interface server. Chances are, if you don't know what the CLI is (and aren't using Moose), you aren't using it and you can turn it off. If you don't use the web interface, you can turn that off with the httpport option. If you use multiple music types (mp3, flaq, etc) each uses a bit more memory. Reducing the number of types you have may result in a very small speedup. If you have only one type of squeezebox, that cuts down the memory footprint a bit. Support for more boxes (2&3 are the same, but 1 is different, and original SLiMP3 is different) costs more memory. Starting in server 6, there is an option for having the sql database in memory or on disk. Frankly, I don't know which is faster. It's a tradeoff between the linkstations paging and SQLs own paging. Who knows which is better at it? Tell us what you find out. -- Michaelwagner ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Michaelwagner's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27356 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
