RN316 & 6.5.0 - horrible performance

I'm not talking about copy'ing files either, that's a pipe dream at this point, I can't even browse the web UI. I constantly get "connecting to the readynas admin page" no extra apps are turned on, just an smb share for a few files, but that doesnt even work now after this upgrade. can i downgrade back to 6.2.4? is anyone else experiencing issues like this? even if i can downgrade, i dont know how it'll work thru the web ui since it is so un-responsive. i was able to download the logs after 30 minutes of refreshing and battling with it. i am running a single nic with 100mb, ip4, ipv6 disabled. pings to the unit never drop.....im really upset with this
The NAS does need to compute btrfs quotas as part of the upgrade - which is done in the background later on. So that needs to complete before you get full performance back. If your volume is very old, then a factory reset might also help - there were some settings changed along the way, some of which seem to matter more now then they did then.
I did a reset on my RN102 during 6.4.x, and there was a signifcant speed boost afterwords.
