Chris,
just thought to let you know, that further investigation into the system, and its terrible slowdown in Mac/finder, which i suspected the service mode of the bdp was the culprit, has come to a conclusive answer. After disabling servicemode, the hogging of the system was still there, so the search went on. It had to do something with syncing the shares on the network or internet, so i took out dropbox first, to no avail though.
Today i finally had a positive conclusion to this, since disabling my synology cloud station solved it all. No more hogging, and immediate folder views in dropbox and the likes. Mac/finder even connects to the bdp again immediately where it wouldn't before.
Even updating to the latest build on cloud server won't help a lot. other users have filed a ticket for this too ive seen on their forum. Might not be too relevant for BDP/firmware, but since we discussed it before, just thought id post here.
Cheers,
Marius
