Just ran various tests, from Germany (1000km from datacenter) the front page loads in 1 second, the hardware it runs on is identical.

FLAC / Re: FLAC v1.4.x Performance Tests
Last post by Porcus -
Can anyone try to replicate the following observation, using their fave build and CPU?

Prediction order (the "-l" switch) makes for big time penalty somewhere above -l12.

Being --lax settings, they may have gone under everyone's radar for good reason. But the impact is unexpectedly big here, see plot below.

Here is what I did, using the "timer64" tool - but PowerShell wizards can probably come up with something built-in (and *n*x users, you likely know what to do):
for /l %l IN (6,1,32) DO timer64 flac --lax -fr0 -ss -l %l filename*.flac >> logfile.txt
for /l %l IN (6,1,32) DO timer64 flac --lax -fpr0 -ss -l %l filename*.flac >> logfile.txt
... re-encoding yes (that's the -f), so in principle that means every successive encode has to read a more complicated FLAC file, but (1) FLAC decodes so quick it shouldn't matter, and (2) anyway a jump would be a surprise. The "-r0" to ensure that the partitioning is done the same for every run.

Timings on a quick run on one album (Swordfishtrombones) - this fanless computer is cooling constrained and timings have shown to be quite unreliable, but I ran  -l15 and -l16 (indicated in the oval) several times on several files and that particular jump is quite consistent. For -p, the impact is more dramatic already at -l 13.

Last post by Grobb284 -
Recently having multiple indexing errors when scanning the library, "status: object not found."
Changed to different thumb drives, same result.
Reinstalled Foobar2000 for Android, same result.
Unsure what is the problem and solution?

We have moved hydrogenaud.io to a new datacenter today (the 8 hour downtime), all should be working now, except anything which is not port 80 or 443, will fix that shortly. Post here please if anything does not look right.
