Hi Erland Yes, I'm afraid that it's true that the slow performance is there with no libraries defined, and without Custom Browse enabled/installed. All I need to do is tick the Multi-Library plugin (to enable it) and then restart SC, and it runs like treacle from that point on. It's the same after several restarts, but returns to normal as soon as I untick Multi-Library.
In Task Manager I can see that Squeezecenter.exe runs the CPU at 90-100%, and that the memory allocated to it just climbs and climbs the longer I leave it running. At first it is a few hundred mb, and the total commit charge is around 600mb. I have never left it long enough for the commit charge to exceed the 1GB of ram available (although it has got up to around 850mb at one stage), so I no longer believe it is a ram paging issue. One small correction - I said that any click in SC takes minutes to respond. That isn't quite true - most clicks are just a bit slow, but only clicking on Multi-Library takes a couple of minutes to respond. A can't think of any other differences in the machines. Both are running AVG Free for virus protection, both have all the XP updates installed, both are running the same versions of SC and your plugins. Only the hardware is different - the original machine is a dual core Athlon 64 X2 4200+ at 2.2GHz with 4GB ram, whereas the lower spec one is a single core Athlon LE-1620 at 2.4GHz with 1GB ram. -- chill ------------------------------------------------------------------------ chill's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=10839 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=61644 _______________________________________________ plugins mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/plugins
