I have sabnzbd installed on my Windows Home Server. It has been working fine all evening downloading at 5MB/s
A few hours ago and without me changing any setting the download rate has decreased greatly I can now only get around 1MB/s.
Yet if I go to my workstation and test the connection to my usenet server by downloading with grabit I can get full speeds of 5MB/s.
Any ideas why this is happening? I have tried restarting sabnzdb but with no luck
Thanks

Re: Sudden decrease in download speed
Never seen it on my WHS, but I don't watch the speed all the time 
On the other hand, a WHS leads a life of its own.
Was a repair or a unpack going on?
Maybe it's balancing drives or something like that?

Re: Sudden decrease in download speed
Hi shypike
You might be right there because out of the blue download speeds went back to full speed again without me doing anything.
I did a 8 hour run last night to see how things went and you can see that download performance has been sloping off.

Is there anything I can try to help performance?
What should I set the cache to? I have 2GB of ram
I have a single core celeron 440 2Ghz which I know is a bit of a bottleneck but was hoping for better performance.
Many thanks for any help
