Is it the SoC or the Switch chipset doing the heavy lifting there? What conditions do you get that throughput? The Kirkwood SoC's are a bit better than some of the rubbish out there, it is important to note that there are some good Marvel SoC's (i.e Kirkwood) and some Rubbish ones (i.e Amarda) I have seen them flail for instance with high numbers of IO writes (for instance bit-torrent, DRBD backing store, NFS as VM backing store) on synology X12. - Don't get me going on QNAP's Given it is a different arch, less hardware, less expandable etc I simply can't recommend people use them given you can build an x86_64 low TPW style system for less than 200$ (NZ dollars). You do have the advantages that you get an all in one unit so there is that. -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
