Buffering when playing HEVC10 from SMB/NFS share

While it's certainly not the gaming-rig-level processor, it's hard to call it slow. Speaking with numbers, my 2 efficiency cores was under 50% each during the test, and the performance cores were less than 5% of utilization – I would expect at least one core to hit 90%+ before considering the client processor as the bottleneck. Obviously, thermal throttling also was out of equation due to temps being lower than 50C all the time. Also surprised to hear that M-processors are rare, given they are in each and every new mac for few years now.

However, even though I'm skeptical of that's being the case, your point still stays valid. I haven't tested it on other hardware. I have a somewhat powerful gaming laptop (with 3070), will try a test on it soon. Thanks for the tip!
