RaspbXbian + koditorrent
Hi,

I had raspbmc with the koditorrentplugin, but it is so freaking slow, it takes me 5 to 10 minutes just to browse to my fav TV show, let alone start it. Usually it times out before i can make it there. On my PC it works great, but i want to make it work on my Raspberrypi.

So i tried raspbxbian instead. I hoped it would work better, but no.

Is the Raspberry just to slow for raspbmc / raspbxbian + koditorrent, or is there a way to work around this?

RE: RaspbXbian + koditorrent
You'll need to check the system to see where the bottleneck is.

ssh into your RPi and whilst running koditorrent in XBMC run "top"

At the top you'll see something like this:

eg: Cpu(s): 2.8 us, 0.1 sy, 0.1 ni, 96.8 id, 0.0 wa, 0.2 hi, 0.1 si, 0.0 st

If "id" is near zzero then it's a CPU bottleneck
If "wa" is greater than 50 then it's a disk bottleneck.

Now run "free"

eg: Swap: 250876 0 250876

If the middle number is not 0 then you are swapping, so memory is the bottleneck.

If all looks fine, check the network. If using Wifi, try using ethernet and see if that improves anything.
