Slow access to Readynas after upgrade to 6.9.x (Admin page, SMB etc)
Hi there, I upgraded to 6.8 and 6.9 a while ago but since I noticed performance slowdowns I went back to 6.7.5, which is IMHO a very stable release. Versions 6.8. and 6.9. (all availavle sub-vers...

Hi evan2,
I did disable the real time virus protection service as you suggested for some test runs - but that did not change a thing!

I don't see the issue in local,
Could do you please change SMB encryption to global and set as disable in Admin GUI Sytstem/Settings/ Services/SMB, then check SMB performance?
6.9.1 added smb encryption, it's default setting is share level Enable, genually, it should be not SMB encryption at this time,
Anyway, you may try to disable SMB encryption in Global.

Thanks evan2, I tried your suggestions, did sot solve the problem.
Latest findings are:
1) Situation is worst on NAS 6.9.2 connected by a Macintosh machine running OSX 10.7.5 (the latest OS to run on 32 bit kernel machines). The SMB connection drops, even the NAS admin page crashes after some clicks. Need to reboot the NAS then. The only way here seems to downgrade the NAS to 6.7.5 (which is what I use right now). Unfortunately I have 2 desktop Macs with 32 bit kernel, hence bound to OSX 10.7.5.
2) Situation is much better on my Macintosh Macbook running OSX 10.9.5 (havent tried newer OSes!), which is a 64 bit kernel machine connected to a NAS 6.9.2. Need more checks with this configuration.
3) I can't tell a lot about Win7/Win10 connected to a NAS 6.9.2 as I need to borrow such a machine and do some checks.
Will keep you informed,
-Alois
