Re: Slowed right down

I'm at 33% and no slow down yet. When the red ring of fire does appear just think of how many hours you've lost in your life (cumulative) and what you could have done with them.

Re: Slowed right down

Wow, this evening the box is really slow through menus. And lots of red rings, when setting series link, deleting an episode and changing series link settings. OnE red ring lasted over a minute. I've got 16% space used now.

No update light.

Definitely there is a slow down, for me it was at around 35% with ~75 hours of suggestions.

The "good" thing (if you can find a positive in this issue) is that the slow down does not seem to get much worse after the initial crunch point. I have 37% full now and over 200 hours of suggestions and it is still pretty useable.
I turned suggestions off last week, so aside from the recycle bin, ive only used 16%. Think this must be a different reason for slow down.
