Well plenty of people on the QNAP forum think it runs quite slow. And a
TS-209Pro isn't that low quality, although it only has 128MB ram.
For me the webinterface is now already quite slow, and that's on a
2.4GHz system with 1GB ram and SATA disks. I would expect software
running on the same pc to feel snappy. Many websites on the 'net load
faster than SC coming from the same PC.

Apart from that, I see this discussion is going nowhere, but at least
I've aired my frustrations about the software of this otherwise
splendid hardware.

And I have no ambition to start coding it myself, I am already
scrambling to find the time to work on another open source project (see
sig)
