Attempting to fix greyhole performance issues...

[kevinor]

So I did a fresh install of amahi on Ubuntu, and I'm at the point of getting my system back up and running. I copied some files back onto some shares... no problems.

However, accessing the files via the network seems to be a huge problem. The files are getting served so slow, that windows explorer takes MINUTES just to display the file structure.

So I've been fiddling and trying to update greyhole, and update samba etc... And sometimes the speed issue gets solved for like 15 seconds, but then it returns.

I'll post my info below. PLEASE HELP

This table gives you the number of pending operations queued for the Greyhole daemon, per share.

The following is the number of pending operations that the Greyhole daemon still needs to parse.
Until it does, the nature of those operations is unknown.
Spooled operations that have been parsed will be listed above and disappear from the count below.

Please report the verion of Greyhole you are using.

Code: Select all

sudo greyhole

The version should be at the top of the results.

[kevinor]

Well, I know it was an old version, then I updated it to the latest, but now it reports a variable.

The response... verbatim...

greyhole, version %VERSION%, for linux-gnu (noarch)

[bigfoot65]

That is odd. Something is not right. How did you update? This is Ubuntu, correct?

[kevinor]

I believe I updated by downloading the latest deb package directly.

Ubuntu yes.

[kevinor]

I used these instructions:

https://wiki.amahi.org/index.php/Greyhole_updating

[bigfoot65]

So what version did you download or did you add the repo? Have you rebooted recently?

[kevinor]

I did both... the repo and manual... that doesn't make sense.

I haven't recently rebooted, but i did reboot after. I can so again now. I report back if anything changes.

[bigfoot65]

Yea you were only supposed to choose one option.

[kevinor]

Yeah, I didn't even realize it until you mentioned it how dumb that was. I was pre-occupied with March Madness at the time. *shame*

Anyway, did a restart and it's giving me the same "version" and the same performance issues...
