Jim, I've got definite speed problems as well, but only on the new interface. Switch to classic and it's fine. PC's quite old (AMD 2.7GHz, 1GB RAM, Win XP Pro SP2) but doesn't have too many speed problems otherwise. I was playing back an album encoded with FLAC on my SB3 the other night and started to Firefox to browse SqueezeCenter - instantly playback became choppy and was so bad that it pretty much paused until after SqueezeCenter had finished displaying the graphics. The interface takes between 1 and 2 minutes to start and then maybe 30s to 1 min to display anything whenever I click a link. I'm running this on localhost, port 9000 (i.e. nothing strange). The build of SC's from about a week or ten days ago. One possibility I'm yet to test is another browser, or disabling ZoneAlarm in case that's causing problems. Both Firefox and the SlimServer EXE file (slim.exe?) run at high CPU for the time that the browser is loading each page. Can anyone comment please?
