I have run the following command against my collection of 5,000 songs: scanner --wipe --cleanup --d_info --d_server --d_scan \\ip-address\public\music
The rescan took just over 30 minutes with the additional debugging. One thing I did notice whilst using Perfmon is the disk queue goes high every few seconds. Now I know nothing about MySQL but I do know something about Exchange servers and both are transaction based databases. The MySQL instance seems to use circular logging with just two log files. It must surely mean flushing the logs to the database, closing and opening files fairly frequently which is an expensive operation on performance. My disk queue was modal at < 1 but regualarly spiked above 20 (MS state a disk queue > 4 per spindle indicates a problem) -- Paul_B Paul ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Slimserver 6.5.1 on EPIA VIA EN15000 Mini-ITX running Windows 2003 R2.
