Slow share performance on my RN 104 since upgrading to 6.4.0

I upgraded to 6.4.0 two days ago, obviously now wishing I'd checked the forums first as my ReadyNAS was running fine on 6.2.5, but didn't think they'd send out such a poor release. Anyhow, I've s...

Upgraded to 6.4.1 RC1.

Don't see any difference - share performance is still at between 15 and 25 MB/s.

I only upgraded last night (after it spent 4 days resyncing data after a crash) so I don't know if it's more stable and not crashing yet.

  I have a ReadyNas102 and made an upgrade to 6.4. about 3 to 4 weeks ago, then upgraded to 6.4.1 T21, T29, T35. With every version I had severe problems on performance. To open some folders it takes every time about 30 to 60s! I have also problems with backups from my pc to the NAS. It permanently fails with rsync timeouts. So my NAS is practically not usable because of the long access times and I am not able to backup my data in a normal way. I do not understand, that Netgear lets users alone with such a problem during such a long time. I tried to get information, how it would be able to downgrade to 6.2.5 (wich did run reasonably).

    Severe performance issue on my side as well. My disks transfer rate fell to 18 Mo/s since 6.4.0.
