I did a quick test from my iMac, after patching SSH with the HPN stuff: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/ccosby/homebrew-ninja/master/hpn-ssh.rb And it definitely went way up. I see on average transfer rates around 90-120 MB/s. Let me do some more testing this week but it definitely looks great already!

Awesome, I guess 6.6.3 has it then? I'll do some testing!

That is awesome!! :) I will definitely do some testing and report back!! Thank you again! Marco

Hi @eschultz, that would be amazing! :) Thank you! Looking forward to it!

Hi Guys, any ideas on this?

Did you change your plex settings to use that path? It does look like your tmpfs mounted correctly under /ramdisk. Remember you need to change your Plex Settings to actually use it. Attached you can find how I setup up mine and then inside the Plex setup you set it to use the /transcode path.

Hi Guys, Would it be feasible to apply these patches in one of the upcoming Unraid releases? It really helps with RSYNC transfers or basically anything using SSH. A few references: https://www.psc.edu/hpn-ssh https://sourceforge.net/projects/hpnssh/ Thank you, -Marco

This is really odd, I have been using this for a long time, did you try running the commands manually? Any errors? Like: mkdir /ramdisk mount -t tmpfs -o size=2048m tmpfs /ramdisk This is my go file and the output of df -h which shows the /ramdisk of 2GB: # cat /boot/config/go #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility #ethtool -K eth0 tx off sg off tso off /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & mkdir /ramdisk mount -t tmpfs -o size=2048m tmpfs /ramdisk # df -h Filesystem Size Used Avail Use% Mounted on rootfs 12G 396M 12G 4% / tmpfs 12G 248K 12G 1% /run devtmpfs 12G 16K 12G 1% /dev cgroup_root 12G 0 12G 0% /sys/fs/cgroup tmpfs 128M 2.4M 126M 2% /var/log /dev/sdd1 7.6G 587M 7.1G 8% /boot tmpfs 2.0G 0 2.0G 0% /ramdisk /dev/md1 2.8T 1.4T 1.4T 51% /mnt/disk1 /dev/md2 2.8T 279G 2.5T 10% /mnt/disk2 /dev/md3 2.8T 17M 2.8T 1% /mnt/disk3 /dev/md4 2.8T 748G 2.0T 27% /mnt/disk4 /dev/md5 2.8T 218G 2.6T 8% /mnt/disk5 /dev/sdc1 233G 121G 111G 53% /mnt/cache shfs 14T 2.6T 12T 19% /mnt/user /dev/loop0 30G 1018M 28G 4% /var/lib/docker shm 64M 0 64M 0% /var/lib/docker/containers/dfc268df8c41735b6868324017ee4856f1dd9f1d6d78521101b81b126411eb03/shm shm 64M 8.0K 64M 1% /var/lib/docker/containers/508dfe59ead3611622afde93e85ad50f77f796511ff80c2bc4e07a814c6ea626/shm /dev/loop1 5.0G 18M 4.9G 1% /etc/libvirt

Hi Guys, Yes, trurl, sorry for the typo that is correct, I have also tested adding lines to the /boot/go script and it works great. Here are the reviewed steps , including the go script change: 1) Login using SSH to your Unraid server > ssh root@unraid(IP) 2) mkdir /ramdisk 3) mount -t tmpfs -o size=1024m tmpfs /ramdisk 4) This will create a 1G /ramdisk 5) Set Plex set to container (/transcode) host (/ramdisk) 6) Change Plex settings to /transcode 7) Be happy .. you can actually go inside the folder too: cd /ramdisk, start a movie and do a couple of ls or df -h and you will see that being used. 8) To make it persistent, you can add the lines to the go script under /boot/config 9) Here are the lines in mine that are working: #!/bin/bash # Start the Management Utility /usr/local/sbin/emhttp & ethtool -K eth0 tx off sg off tso off mkdir /ramdisk mount -t tmpfs -o size=1024m tmpfs /ramdisk NOTE: This is my whole go script, the only lines you really need are the last two ones to be added to whatever you have setup.

Hi Guys, I think the easiest way to do this and to make sure it works is: 1) Login using SSH to your Unraid server > ssh root@unraid(IP) 2) mkdir /ramdisk 3) mount -t tmpfs -o size=1024m tmpfs /mnt/ramdisk 4) This will create a 1G /ramdisk 5) Set Plex set to container (/transcode) host (/ramdisk) 6) Change Plex settings to /transcode 7) Be happy .. you can actually go inside the folder too: cd /ramdisk, start a movie and do a couple of ls or df -h and you will see that being used. Enjoy! -Marco
