May 1, 201115 yr I have a Media Share that contains pretty much all my media Files, it contains well over 19k media files as per screenshot: I'm using windows 7 and explorer to access the share, Initially i though i had an issue with windows 7 trying to cache everything when I accessed the share but I have gone through and diabled any indexing/caching fetures in windows 7. My issue is that when I try to access that my mapped drive and start to drill down on some folders it take forever, it freezes it gives the lovely progress loading bar and take up to a minute to load. I'm using the default caching script but it seems to make things worse in a sense that some folder load instantly while others just freeze and cause an error saying the share is no longer accessible. Any suggestions into what the issue might be? or How I could optimize folder structures?
May 1, 201115 yr Author Have you tried cache_dirs:http://lime-technology.com/forum/index.php?topic=4500.0 Yes I'm using the following setup: /boot/cache_dirs -d 5 -m 3 -M 5 -w
May 1, 201115 yr Author I have 1 gigabyte of Ram on the box, I can try the -U option, as for the depth I don't have much depth in terms of the directory structure ends usually @ 3 levels so 5 is more than enough.
May 1, 201115 yr I believe it is a lower case u, as in "-u". Enter "cache_dirs -h" to check the list of options. If your depth is shallow then leave the default alone. You gain nothing from changing it unless the depth it high. Add a 2G RAM stick; it costs under $30 and may solve this problem.
