Thank God for the write buffer option

Post by Swisher » Wed Jun 28, 2017 4:35 pm

:D I am so pleased with the write buffer option.
At 1st i had not checked this option which causes my mac to hang due to lack of memory, nothing helped and i was forced to restart my mac by holding the on/off switch.
Downloading at 56MBs is simply too fast for my NAS to which i download the files.
Enabling the write buffer worked and i can download again normal without my system hanging.
The downloads will stop at some moment to wait for the flush disk....

Again... usenetic... Very Goooooood.

If the data is coming in too fast then you can also throttle the bandwidth speed.

You can setup the bandwidth throttling using the icon on the right top:
