Re: [Mvpmc-devel] Could use some direction for MClient here...

[Joe C. <joe...@ex...>]

I have just over 10k tracks and slimserver / mclient works just fine with
that.
I don't understand the issues with it. My host system is not exactly a
powerhouse
(2x800 P3) and it runs mythtv + motion on 2 cameras at the same time.
CPU is typically sub 50% on 1 cpu. Clicking on a letter to choose an artist
subset
has about a 1 second response. Playing an album is about a 2 second response
before I hear music. I don't understand the issue with slimserver.

Jerry, what makes gnump3d2 so compelling?

Cheers

Joe
