Hello,

my sabnzbd is doing funny stuff and I'm not sure what's going on.

running on docker on syn DS720+, my connection is 1 Gbit. roughly 85 MB/s downloads... but I got sabnzbd configured to use 70% of bandwidth (limit to 63 MB/s)

Other specs:
2x 4 TB HDD (wd60efax-68shwn0 )
6 GB RAM


what happens is that download speeds are totally unstable, going from 63 MB/s to 0. This happens several times during any given download.

This is with direct unpack ON. Before this started, there were no issues and download speeds were always at a maximum, even with Direct Unpack ON

you can see the graph of the "ups and downs" of the download speed" on the 10 GB file download. Some examples here.




I'm at a loss and I'm not sure what could be causing the issues. I suspected the hard drive, but SMART test indicate everything is fine and I'm not sure how to diagnose the problem.

Any recommendations on how to proceed?

Thanks a lot and happy new year

I just saw the trhead but I'm not sure it's the same culprit. my system specs are much buffier
