    Not see that error here.  Maybe one of your installed plugins are causing this? (try booting in safe mode)

    Updated just right now. 

     

    I think something is off with the Main page. I just tried to use the mover and I can't see any real time updates for the read/write speed 

     

    Also, shows as everything moved, but my storage is the same in my cache drive.

    Did anyone notice a drastic slowdown starting with RC2 when moving files? Sometimes i cant even access radarr, because it hangs. My Windows 10 VM says SSD Usage 100% and reaction time 1200seconds or something liek that..^^

    Working fine for me.

     

    Start your server in safe mode, and recheck.

    Yup. My storage took since yesterday to clean after the mover. But today I still see the readings the main page way to off. Like no reading or writing in hours and at the stats plugin. No activity for hours, I don't have a graph for HDD activity

    Just did and the cache is almost full now for no reason, same error, that size doesn't match what's really inside and the main page read and write, doesn't seem to be as fast or fluent as using rc2 and stable. 

     

    I'm rolling back

    Please provide diagnostics before rolling back. They will help us investigate.

    I think we have the same problem. I have a thread about it in the general support area as I thought I had the same problem in 6.6.6. Probably remembered wrong. Write speed on encrypted xfs is giving me like 10-15 MB/s. Changed to unencrypted xfs and got full speed back. Maybe need a separate bug report for that. 

     

    Edit:

    Made one

    Sometimes when my SSD cache shows a different size to what's actually on there, a manual TRIM brings it back closer to even.

    /sbin/fstrim -a -v | logger &> /dev/null

    the manual trim worked, but I don't know something is off with those readings in the main page. Maybe I'm crazy

    Any chance of kernel 4.20  and a newer drm in the 6.7 series?

    Last we were told is 4.20 is aim with possible 5.0 depending on when it is finalized.

    I can recreate the issue without problem with the SSD. The used size is increased at restart and to fix the problem I have to do a manual trim. 

     

    I'll use it for couple more days before rolling back and report the issues here.

    Having just looked at CA for the first time in a while (my server is running fine and I don't fiddle with it much), here's what I said to Squid about all the new CA icons:

     

    Quote

    I like the new icon style and shapes, but intensely dislike the lack of color. I know you're just following trends set by MS, Apple, & Google in their interfaces, but color is so vital to humans in recognizing things. Looking at my Settings | User Utilities section now is just one big sea of blue on a black (dark theme) background. It takes much more effort to look at each icon to see if it's the one I want, instead of just being able to find a color pattern. I guarantee you that ControlR and Unbalance are now the first things I see when I look at that screen simply because they're red and green (respectively) in an otherwise monochrome blur. FIP and Stats Settings are the next things I see - even though they're primarily blue, they're at least different shades of blue. Heck, I find ControlR on my phone screen because of the red circles even though my home screen page is full of different colored icons scattered everywhere (even though Android deems it necessary to put an ugly white circle behind them).

     

    Again, I get that you're following the herd, but when the herd is headed toward a cliff...

     

    Based on the comments, I'm going to guess that when I install 6.7, all the icons will be monochrome. For that reason alone, this will be one upgrade I'm not looking forward to.

     

    Just my 3 cents worth (gotta account for inflation)... 

    </rant> 

     

    I took a look at SpaceInvaderOne's video review of 6.7rc1 and I'll repeat my thoughts. The icon shapes are nice, but they're nothing but a sea of white. Again, I get that this is the latest trend in design, but it is, in my opinion a terrible one. There is considerably more cognitive load in mentally parsing the shapes when there is no color to help out. This is especially tough on those of us whose eyesight isn't quite as good as it used to be.

     

    There is a reason why modern IDEs all do syntax highlighting. This is an absolute God-send in comparison to the dark ages of working on a monochrome green or amber monitor! Just try disabling syntax highlighting in your modern IDE and see how hard that makes it - there's no good reason to go back.

     

    Again, I get that you're just following the "modern" trend, and I have tremendous appreciation for the incredible amount of work that goes into keeping the system updated with all the latest security patches and all the new features you're bringing to the table, but this is one trend I wouldn't mind missing out on. I'm sure that there will be a number of security patches in the 6.7 release, and I'd be remiss in skipping it just because of the UI design, but, based on what I've seen, I'd be tempted.

     

    And, yes, I really hate that my Android phone shows all my notification icons in white against a black background. When they allowed color there, I could tell at a glance if I had an orange text notification icon - now I have to analyze each one to see if it's the "new text message" shaped white square, among the sea of other white, essentially square, icons.

     

    </rant>

    I don't post much but I have to agree its harder to discern what icon your looking at, example would be unbalance or speedtest it just draws you to it when navigating both by its color and shape/image

    It is still up to the plugin author to decide what icon to use. The previous colored icons are still supported in Unraid 6.7

    The Unraid UI itself is all monochrome icons now...

     

    There are far bigger issues in the world to worry about - I just wanted to voice my opinion. Thanks for listening.
