Hello,
I'm using SABNZBD 0.7.5 on a SYNOLOGY DS1812+ NAS unit and it works pretty good but I think I could make it more efficient through the switches options.
The point is that my memory is not maxxed out while repairing files.
I have 1 Gb and while repairing the NAS is at 38% memory use max.
Here are my settings :
Extra PAR2 Parameters : -m500 (tried this to force SAB to use 500Mb of memory but it's not working)
Nice Parameters : -n15 (by default)
I couldn't find information about these settings so maybe someone here could help ?
Not sure what the -n15 setting is doing in the "Nice parameters".
Also the "Enable MultiCore Par2" was checked but greyed when the "Extra PAR2 Parameters" was empty.
When I set the -m500, the "Enable MultiCore Par2" is not checked anymore ...
Thanks for your help, I'd like to use as much memory as possible to repair faster (I can still add 2 extra Mb of memory).

Re: Optimize SABNZBD on SYNOLOGY
SABnzbd will only use extra memory to keep articles in memory
before they are assembled into files. On the average that's about 200M of extra memory.
You set those as article cache in Config->General. 300M is a good value.
That's an upper limit; you cannot force it to use more, because there's no need.
Having said that, you should upgrade to 0.7.6, because that eliminates potential
excessive memory usage (which will only delay operations).
AFAIK, there is no multi-core par2 available for Synology systems, so adding the option may
prevent par2 from running properly.
You'll have to find out yourself what your Synology's par2 is capable of.
The same is true for "nice" parameters; these are platform dependent.
