Firstly, my SB3 and slimserver are functioning correctly. Music is being
served, I can browse by artist/album, etc. However, the performance of
the web-server interface is decidedly clunky. Starting from the server
'Home' and clicking 'Browse Albums', it can take 4 or 5 seconds to
populate the album list - I have '186 albums with 2634 songs by 269
artists'.

I have tried replacing the SQLlite database with MySQL, with only a
small improvement. I have enabled query caching on MySQL and observed
this working - the large query issued at the start of the 'Browse
Albums' page takes 0.75 secs to execute, repeating the query took 0.0!
secs, so the cache is hitting.

I am running Suse 9.3 on a PII 450MHz processor with 256M RAM at run
level 3, ie no graphics.

Watching 'top', I can see slimserver.pl jump from 1% to 65-85% for a
few seconds when the web page is fetched. Other than mysqld, no other
processes get close.

Using SlimServer Version: 6.2.2 - 7069 - Linux - EN - iso-8859-1,
default 'skin'.

If this is as good as it gets on my hardware, then so be it, I'll live
with it or upgrade. But I wondered if anyone could compare this
performance with their own setup and offer suggestions as to how I
could improve matters?
