OS 6.4.1 slow ... to the point of unusable
We just upgraded an RN102 to 6.4.1, which intially seemed to fix some backup issues we'd been working around, however we've just downgraded to 6.4.0 after seeing 6.4.1 being too slow to be usable (th...
To get the fix for the anti-virus issue you can update to ReadyNASOS 6.5.0-T338 (Beta 2) (or later). Alternatively if you prefer you can stay on 6.4.2 for now and install the hot-fix (which is now available).

Still applies after 6.4.2 T59 upgrade. As soon as a scrub starts, the load (as seen by top) increases dramatically because of kworker/u2:xx processes. On my RN102, there are three of them, plus the other processes that normally run all the time. Load now is at 9-10.
Haven't seen this in 6.4.0, but since I use scrub jobs starting at 03:00, they are normally finished by the time I look at CPU stats. Now with 6.4.1, they seem to take a lot longer.
Of course using the disk being scrubbed for any file IO takes forever.
