Ah, that makes sense. Thanks so much for the speedy reply.

Hi all, I'm noticing something on my SABnzbd installation that I don't really understand. The system is VERY slow when unraring passworded archives. Like, almost an order of magnitude slower. A typical 10GB archive set that is not password protected can be unarchived in about 3 minutes or so. A simi...

Shortly after my last post, I started seeing the same behavior in other clients, and on other machines. This, to me, rules out SABnzbd as the source of the problem. My apologies for not posting sooner, but I wound up out of town and without network access. In the intervening time, my ISP and NNTP bi...

Interestingly, this issue seems to have progressed. Now once the speed drop occurs, each connection maxes out at 12KB/s, half of what it used to. Is there somewhere that SABnzbd hides files other that the configurable folders and the .sabnzbd directory? I feel like I'm not doing a complete wipe when...

Also, I'm sure that it's not an ISP issue, because what SABnzbd does is drop to about 25KB/s per connection. If I add more connections, I can up the dropped speed. Typically I use 3 connections to the server, which drops to around 70-75KB/s. If I use 20 connections, when the speed drops it goes to a...

So I'm downloading a bunch of stuff, and it's been humming along fine since Friday at 1200KB/s. However, sometime over the night or early in the morning, something happened, because when I checked it the speed was only 70KB/s. I paused and resumed the queue, and full speed returned, but after a few ...
