whats wrong with this?

thanky so much for if somedody can help me in this case

or should i use to change the cache?

SABnzbd isn't the fastest program, partly because it's written in Python.
You will get slower maximum speeds on slower systems.
This is no problem as long as your maximum speed is below your ISP speed.

Three things may help:
- Do not use SSL
- Use a memory cache, but ONLY when you have enough memory available
  (if the cache causes swapping, it's actually counter-productive)
- Use Python 2.4 instead of 2.5

In the future we will have a second look at performance.
Using Python greatly enhances portability, but this comes at a price.
We'll never reach the performance of an app written in C.

thanks for youre help

but right now i use it on my PC and there is it very ok for me. But can you tell me how can i change doe Dowload folder to a net share?

Just fill in the full path of the download folder (e.g. z:\download).
You need a drive letter and not a UNC path (\\server\download), because
the par2 utility cannot handle UNC paths.

We warned that performance may suffer if you decide to put the download
folder on a share (due to extra network traffic).
It's better to keep the download folder local and the "completed" folder on a share.
