Quite a few people don't WANT to have to dedicate a "modern machine" to SlimServer. They want it running on a NAS-type machine. I've got a 600MHz VIA C3 with 120MB available physical RAM that I use for NAS. Since I'm using it to store all my music and other files, since it's on 24/7 and since it does nothing else, it's the only logical choice to run SlimServer. I know very well what "old" and "slow" machines are capable of, and you'd be surprised. SlimServer should not be as sluggish as it currently is on this machine. Some of what people have said above seems to indicate that MySQL will lead to a performance increase on this machine. If so, that's great. Perl itself might be the next culprit to look at -- and why the heck SlimServer is chewing up SO much RAM. -- neurophyre ------------------------------------------------------------------------ neurophyre's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=1758 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=28414 _______________________________________________ discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/lists/listinfo/discuss
