Hi all

I am over optical fiber ad my DL BW is almost 500Mbps and DL almost 200Mbps
I would like to understand why I seem to be limited at around 200Mbps in DL mode
My settings :
SSL with default port
news.eu.supernews.com or news.supernews.com
30 bots allowed

If you want some speedest printscreen, ping or tracert I will give you

Thanks

If you look down at the status bar where it shows two numbers: "Cache: X/Y". What do these numbers showing during download?

How much RAM do you have?
What kind of PC and hard drive is it?

The limits of download speed will be either:
1 - The server.
2 - The network,
3 - The disk drives.

Or some combination. Just because you have 500 to the net, that doesn't mean all paths to the news server are that fast. I've gotten 500 Mbps to my local server but it's sitting right on the same 1 Gbps Ethernet segment as my PC. I have a couple users who regularly get > 300 Mbps going to a couple different news servers. As an experiment, I might sign up with another news server. Maybe astraweb and add it to the servers you use so, they data is spread over multiple servers.

You might uninstall your security software, reboot and try some test downloads too. You can always re-install it if it's not causing a slowdown.

So you have 200 cache buffers (costing around 120Mb of RAM based on typical post sizes of 600KB). If cache is going to 0 free then this suggests that your disk is not keeping up with the download speed. You can increase the size of the cache by editing the Newsbin .nbi file that you are using. Whether this will help you I am not sure.

Yeah, that's probably a good idea. You only have 4 gigs of RAM though so, you don't want it too bug. I might set it to 400.

[Performance]
ChunkCacheSize=400

You'd have to add this to the NBI file. Use Wordpad. I'd back up the NBI file first.

I can not find cahe line in newsbin.nbi file !!!

That's because it's not in there. You have to add it.

other good tips ??? lik this one ??

If you had more RAM I'd suggest making it larger.

Faster hard disk and faster computer could all help too. The performance you're looking for is bleeding edge, meaning everything has to be working properly and the equipment has to be top notch to achieve it.

I had put ChunkCacheSize=600 and I reach almost 380Mbps

My config :
ASUS P5Q-E
INTEL E8400 OC @ 4GHz
2*2 Go Corsair PC8500 (XMS2-8500) 2048MB 1066MHz 5-5-5-15 2.10V

600 cache blocks can equal 360 megs of RAM. Might need to keep an eye on ram usage.

is there a good smart tool that can show cpu and RMA usage with NBPRO DL ?
Because it is not easy to find DDR2 @ good price now Image link not allowed for unregistered users

I use Task Manager. It's built into windows.

As you can see with cache @ 600 !!!

Nice. CPU load's pretty high. What security software do you use?

What do you mean about secu soft ??
Only Eset Nod32 antivirus
Nothing else

Hi,
I am on Win7 SP1 with fiber access up to 500Mbps in DL and 200Mbps in UP
It seems that I can't use my full bandwidth with your servers!!!
My maximum speed is 200MBps on monitoring
Thanks for reply

Only Eset Nod32 antivirus

If you want to see how it's impacting your download speed and CPU load. You might uninstall nod32, reboot and try a couple downloads. I wouldn't be surprised if much of your high CPU load is from your anti-virus.

Yes but which one can I choose instead of nod32?

You could experiment. See which one permits the fastest downloads.
