Slow network performance or something else, i dunno.
#1
Hi! I use XBMC 11 on a Atom/ION system with a Ubuntu server as backend. Recently i have had some problems with my HTPC who seem to have a hard time getting things to run smoothly from the server.

The server:
The server hosts all the video and music together with MySQL for the database and a path substitute for Thumbnails. All setup in the advancedconfig.xml, all working fine until some days ago.

Performance:
iperf gives a bandwidth of 900 mbit/s+ in any direction.
no package loss in any direction.

Problem:
Look at the code block below. It takes 26 seconds for something to do something with somthing. I can't really analyze that Smile
"15:13:46 T:140547618600704 NOTICE: Creating InputStream" seems to be where it starts to go wrong.
I don't think it has to do with samba as it also seems to affect requests to MySQL, slowing down listings of my TV Shows for example.
Also this is not a problem all the time, sometimes, but not often it runs smooth, and also never affects video playback when the video has started.

Code:
