UDP content load to SD cards slow
Good morning men,

I am having an issue with loading content to SD cards on each device over a UDP transfer network. The issue is writing lots of little files. When we transfer 100 songs, for example, we have to open another read write operation for each song where as transfering one big movie is a single read write operation. The problem I am seeing over the network is loss of blocks when writing all the little files to each device which causes the network to re-send the little files again. I have done extensive testing on block size and confidently feel that it is optimized.

SD cards are class 10
network is 100 mbit devices to a 1 gb server
content is up to 128 gigabytes of data on each sd card
devices contain two sd cards each
possible 800 devices to load
content contains movies, songs, images, and other misc little files.

goal is bring 9gigabit an hour transfer rate to 10 gigabit.

let me know where to start.

Thanks,

Chris
