Its in AUR.
If you are willing we could use teamviewer or something to figure this out. I’m really stuck on this.
I can figure most things but if you can’t download from Plex at HDD speed – we are dead stop because all that requires:
- HDD read
- Socket write over 127.0.0.1 from server to browser
- Browser receive on 127.0.0.1
- Browser write to HDD.
There is something in the socket layer which is getting in the way BADLY.
I tried to setup arch twice. Both times I wiped it at the bootstrapping stage because of frustration. It was not a pretty sight. (I’ve been doing this for 40 years now and don’t understand arch).
I’m sorry but I have no choice to refer you to the Arch folks for ideas. I’m stumped.
I like arch for very limited and very powerful use cases. like Plex. I really appreciate the help. I will continue and post a solution here once I get it.
When you say refer me to the arch folks do you mean for me to go back to the Arch package maintainers?
I might have some more questions while digging in further.
grasp-at-straws item to check.
What does the S.M.A.R.T data for the HDD show?
Any HDD errors being corrected?
Any retries?
I would hope not but that 60 MB/sec is concerning.
WIth that CPU, you should be pulling at full SATA-3 speed which is 200+ MB/sec
Your Socket comment got me on the right track. I have a very complex network setup here with multiple routers and switches. As it turns out the router on a “separate network” somehow weaseled its way into my routing for this server as a statically set gateway. Because of how this is setup it was relaying through that other router and cycling over and over again.
I turned that router off and reset my routing on this server. Everything is working fine.
I don’t even know what to say about this. but in its simplest form it created something like this, but through software:
I apologize, I feel like I wasted your time.
It’s fixed. That’s what matters.
have a great evening.
