For context, I have around 14k albums that I’d love to share and keep the stream flowing, but I have a couple of problems.
A.) My PC isn’t always on, which isn’t the biggest issue but I know a source just being inches away from being offline is painful.
and the more important issue, B.) Soulseek genuinely slaughters my PC resources at high album counts. I have a decent gaming PC, not some budget machine. Is there a way to limit it’s intake?
I really do want to share my collection, but I don’t have the money to set up a seedbox equivalent just for uploading music. Any help would be appreciated :)
been using nicotine+ and it’s been pretty light on resources for me, on windows with ~2.8tb of shared files i’ve never seen it use more than 1% cpu or 200-300mb ram on my system. I feel you on the 1st point tho, I’m running mine off a laptop that I use for school work etc. and my shares are stored on a external hdd, so it’s impossible to have it running 24/7 even though I’d love to be able to do that. I think a nas is probably the best solution for big collections and thats what most of the slsk users with several tb of files use, but it can definitely be a decent investment of time and money
