USB boot preformance - SpiderUnderUrBed - 2025-07-28
I am running a jellyfin server on a usb live boot, where everything is configured in the ISO, and automatically mounts a hard drive where my movies are at, is the fact that the system is running on a USB the reason jellyfin is so slow? (either that or bad hardware). I assumed that the most of the work is actually handled where the movies are stored. But many USB read and write speeds were a bottleneck?
