What kind of firewall do you have that can handle that amount of bandwidth?

I think mixing RAM sticks is mostly fine today. Maybe you won’t get 100% performance but I don’t think it will be very noticeable. You may still run into issues with some capacity combinations depending on the mainboard/cpu. Regarding clock speeds usually all run on the clock of the slowest one.

Matching RAM latency also matters for performance.

When using different capacity RAM channels matter so take care on the order of population.

Let’s say it counts. What made you STOP?

I have a ~40TB HDD array and jellyfin is super fast. Just put the database and cache files on a SSD.

For bulk storage of 4k videos with high bitrates HDDs are way cheaper.

One router (opnsense) a big Poe switch and unifi aps made a huge difference. Also wiring Ethernet everywhere helped a lot.

Previously we had devolo mesh plugs.

I spam escape but I usally disable sleep on all my machines and use hibernation instead. Too many issues with sleep. Randomly wakes up, USB devices aren’t recognized, a monitor stays black…

The biggest offenders for me are:

• I struggle to navigate and make out alle the controls of the settings app. Somehow finding the settings visually is very difficult.
• The new settings app is single instance. The control panel had lots of popup windows and you could open it multiple times which allowed parallel open settings windows.

It’s like spectre and meltdown you also lost the advertised performance. Less performance is better than a gaping security hole or a broken chip.

Well the player and its controls are client side.

Imagine if nerv had invested some of its money in the mental health of its employees. I like to think many issues could have been solved by hiring a few therapists.
