October 31, 201312 yr hi, i have a persisting problem here - well, basically, it takes sometimes 3 - 5 minutes to connect to the server, and than to list directories in the shares - also takes ages. sometimes finder crashes. sometimes it can't connect. anyway, it PAIN. its been like this since Lion, and nothing changed with Mavericks...upgrading to unraid 5 (from 4.7) or using different protocols (AFP/SMB) - doesn't matter. (it also happens when disks are spun up, so thats not the issue...) on windows it takes seconds... i believe there is some problem with mac in general.... i'd like to ask if someone knows a fix maybe...(or at lease the reason why this happening...) thanks My Specs: unRaid v 5 MB - ASUS Maximus Formula CPU-intel Q6600 Controllers - 6 onboard SATA II (ICH9R), Addaptec AAR1430SA x2, Addaptec AAR1220SA x1. drive bay - SNT 5.25 - 5 drives X3 Drives - 3x WD1000FYPS , 3x WD2000EARS, 2x WD2000EARX Flash drive - SanDisk Crueser Edge 4gb PSU - Corsair AX850 Video card: nVidia Corporation NV34 [GeForce FX 5200] MAC OS X 10.9 i use AFP (but i checked smb - no difference...so...i don't care what protocol to use as long as it works...)
October 31, 201312 yr There is no problem with Mac in general. Shares come up in 5 seconds or less for me via my mbp running 10.9 Perhaps post a syslog and we can look into it further. Also disable all plugins and check that the issue persists.
November 2, 201312 yr I have found if you run the cache_dirs plugin and set the depth to 9999 smb read access is pretty quick, but found writes are a bit slow. I am currently using NFS and the performance from my MAC seems pretty good overall...
April 25, 20179 yr I did have the same problem, bun not now. I use Dynamix Cache Directories plugin and have set the Adaptive scan level depth: to 99 (not Auto !!!)
