Well, I downloaded it and it's currently scanning. I see 2 processes, a slim and a scanner. The scanner is eating the CPU and the slim is snoring with one player playing. No sound skipping despite scanning. I tried to lower the priority of the scanner from the services panel. No go. I don't have the authority (despite being in the administrator group - so who on earth has the authority then?). From the server/performance pane, no one tells me I can't do it, but it doesn't actually do anything. Oddly enough, I can raise the priority of slimserver, although most of the increments it offers me don't actually do anything, but the one called "above normal" works. Why offer me options that don't work? It upgraded the flash in the SB3, couldn't care less about the flash in the SB1. Not sure if that's right or not. There's no way I can see to find out the progress of the scanner ... OK, the scanning finished. There are 3 processes total, a mysqld process, a slim process and a scanner process. The Slim process is now 84MB. The mysqld process is about 20MB, and the scanner, when it was running, was 40MB or so. Shutting off a bunch of plugins I don't use, like iTunes, Moodlogic, etc, seems to have only saved 1/2 a MB. I expected more. Maybe I have to shut down the server and restart it. Yes, that seemed to save 8MB. Now we're at 76.5MB Changing the name of the player interrupts the music. I'm sure that didn't use to happen. 2.5 seconds isn't a valid entry for cross-fade time. Shouldn't the text say so? Better yet, why is 2.5 seconds not a valid value? The number of pixels to scroll setting seems not to be connected. Hmm...and the memory crept back up to 84MB All-in-all, more responsive than it was. I'll have to see if the things I found are already reported as bugs, and if not, report them. But for now I'm exhausted and going to bed. -- Michaelwagner ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Michaelwagner's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=428 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=27325 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list discuss@lists.slimdevices.com http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
