ID3 Tag writing slow on network drives

I noticed that any version of mp3tag is very slow when writing id3 tags on some files (I noticed that is happens with files without both id3v1 and v2 tags) located on network shares. It creates a temporary files .XXXX, but in a VERY slow way (my network transfer rate is 27mbit/s, these files are created at 4mbit/s. Why ? Any way to speedup ? Thank you -- Diesis

Slow Tag Writing over Network (Samba)

Hi I have recently moved my music files to another machine which is on a EXT4 hard drive on a Linux system. I have the drive mounted in my windows 7 machine via SAMBA. When transferring files I get speeds around 80 MB/s read and write. However when I'm writing a new tag to a file MP3tag seems to only achieve 8 MB/s read and 30 MB/s write. The read is slowing this down massively compared to local files and its quite frustrating. I'm assuming it's reading the file to then write it back but I'm no…

Writing Album Art to FLAC very slow over LAN

I have all my CD's ripped to FLAC file per album. Each FLAC file varies from 200MB to over 500MB. They are all stored on my NAS which has a Gigabit connection. I think because the NAS is rather full, it writes at a speed of around 3MB/s whilst it can read at 20MB/s. I'm attempting to Album Art to each FLAC and over the network, MP3Tag can take up to 20 minute to write the image file into the tag for just one album. If the file is stored locally, it's just a second or two. Is this expected? …

General summary: don't tag over the network.
