Network and disk throughput

[giorgio]

I'd love to know how you people all get such fast data speeds!
With a gigabit connection from my desktop computer to the bubba the max I have seen is 4.7 MBytes/s
With my laptop with a "g" wireless the best I get is 1MByte/s

Since upgrading the bubba a couple of days ago I now get 100KBytes/Sec on the wireless connection.

I do have squeezebox server running. That is about the only thing I use on the bubba. Using the bubba as a fileshare is impossible as it is too slow.

Hello to all,

Since I upgraded to version 2 I get only 2 to 3 Mb per second, before I had 6 to 6,5 Mb per second.

I love the update but would like to see the speed (with windows through samba) the same.

Regards,

Puma

Faster data transfer (10 - 11mbytes/s) is possible for Linux clients connecting over a wired network. The CPU utilisation is lower with NFS, when mounted with the -udp option.

Just checking if anyone has found something interesting that might boost up the NIC performance of the Bubba2 a bit more.

I solved this issue by buying a Mac mini server:p
