I just got a QNAP YA-453B, and thought I would try Roon on that box using a USB SSD for the DB
Music files are on the previous QNAP NAS box
Network is 1G netgear the network and setup that is working fine with Roon running on a laptop under Windows.
I’m getting 100% CPU utilization whenever I run Roon on the QNAP, any suggestion on what could be the issue?
CPU is at 100% without streaming and Roon is not doing any background analysis, I tried re installing still same issue.
I’m sure you meant TS-453B as I never heard of an YA-453B. If so, with 2 or 4 GB RAM? 4 GB is the minimum specification for Roon. Maybe your QNAP is just constantly swapping?
I have no problems running my Roon Core on a TBS-453A-8G.
I disabled all music sources then re enabled again and I’m getting cpu utilization from 30 to 60 % now with ROON running
Less than 5 % with ROON disabled
If I check the resource monitor of my QNAP, Roon’s CPU usage is approx. 1.25 - 1.75 % while streaming 24/48 content to one zone (slight use of DSP - PEQ and volume leveling). Either your core is still analyzing your library in the background or other processes are using up your CPU time.
Is this while it is still indexing your music files (this consumes a lot of cpu power)?
Is the issue resolved?
If the cpu reaches 100% again, can you check the resource monitor and see if there are several Roon processes that utilize high cpu load?
