I have SqueezeCenter running on a dedicated 32 bit XP machine right now, which has a 4-core Intel CoreDuo CPU at 2 gHz with 2 GB of RAM. (I got the quad core cheap and thought it would be ideal for this use, but there's hardly EVER any real lod on the CPU. The only time that CPU really seemed helpful was when I used DBPowerAmp Converter to go from Apple Lossless to FLAC for some files that someone gave me, having 4 cores with DBPowerAmp Converter makes it really zip along
Running my Squeezeboxes seems to work very well, but sometimes I pull up the SqueezeCenter HTML GUI on a PC and use it for searching etc. Sometimes it seems pretty slow. I see "waiting for <ip address of SqueezeCenter>" quite a lot. I am not sure if it's database query speed or HTTP compositing and serving that is slow, but anyway I wonder if running on Linux would make the HTTP GUI work faster??? I'd probably use Ubuntu, I have passing familiarity with that. -- milosz ------------------------------------------------------------------------ milosz's Profile: http://forums.slimdevices.com/member.php?userid=11057 View this thread: http://forums.slimdevices.com/showthread.php?t=65585 _______________________________________________ unix mailing list [email protected] http://lists.slimdevices.com/mailman/listinfo/unix
