PeferctTUNES AccurateRip Network Utilization

[BigBlueFan]

Thank you for the great products.

PeferctTUNES AccurateRip is currently listening to my 11,000 track library.

The listening time remaining has been increasing throughout the day (originally four hours, then six, now eight . It is also utilizing less of the network than it was earlier (5-15Mbps now v. 400Mbps earlier). I cannot detect any other device on the network that would prevent the machine that is running PeferctTUNES from utilizing as much of the network as it would need (a speed test from the same machine showed a result of 650Mbps).

Is there anything wrong? If there is, is the anything I can do about it?

Thank you

An update on this:

Moved the folder to the machine that is running PerfectTUNES's hard drive. It completed the process in less than fifteen minutes

I am still wondering about performance over the network. This folder will eventually be moved to a NAS device. I would like to scan it there too.

Thank you.

Please post some details about your setup i.e. network hardware, PCs, OSes, NAS, Illustrate software versions etc.

Thank you for the reply @simbun.

That is exactly what I am looking for, but it is probably a little out of my depth. My next question question may exemplify this: would RAID Scrubbing do something similar?

Thank you @mville.

I'm not using anything special. The machine is a modest pc that is running Windows 11. It is hardwired to a Eero 6 Pro router. The device where the folder is located is also hardwired to the router. It is connected to a sonicTransporter via USB3. The ST and pc run through a 10G switch before the router.

Speeds between the devices are usually 400-600Mbps.

What is the size/format of your 11,000 track library?

What is the size/format of your 11,000 track library?

Around 500GB. Mostly FLAC (most of them uncompressed). Thank you for your help too!

Re: PeferctTUNES AccurateRip Network Utilization

Personally, I'd keep the library local to PeferctTUNES and backup to the NAS.

I also found that PerfectTUNES was way too slow "listening" to files on my NAS. The apparent speed could be improved if it allowed viewing of partial results. That is as new files are scanned they are added to the results viewer rather than having to wait until every file is scanned before any results are available.
