Roon isn't stable and they edit their forum to hide it

Yes I understand that most users don't have this issue.  As mentioned I think there have to be some uses of the database/library functions that aren't commonly used, at least to the level that I and others who have similar problems have used them. 

And if you are only streaming or have a very small local library, you are not likely to have a significant amount of unidentified albums, which Roon seems to be constantly trying to remedy, but with futility. 

Anyway, I'm glad that Roon works well for many.  And it works well for me 80% of the time.  It just so happens that other 20% seems to be when I really want to listen, and thus, 2 servers, severely reducing the likelihood of both servers being borked at the same time. Plus I just enjoy building these machines. 

But to be clear, there is nothing weird about my network, or the machines the cores are running on.  One is a clean Ubuntu server install with nothing else running. The other is currently a Win10 machine that has very little else running (i.e. I'll pop a browser to use the chromecast display function and show the artist photo). 

As above, my complaint is more about the forum than it is the product.

There was a time when I, used to develop/program, would have said that the open source concept would produce tons of problems.  Intuitively it would seem so right?  But the opposite is the case.  I've had less trouble with open source applications than commercially/corporate generated software by a huge margin!  That ole profit margin will gitcha! lol

I run core on a minimal Windows host along with other things.  Not optimal but works well enough on the cheap.  CPU is definitely my bottleneck.  Not so bad that I have been inclined to upgrade to a more powerful host quite yet but likely will at some point.  
 

I still adore Roon and apply a lot of DSP regularly. 

Used it on a core from small green computer and it has been flawless - restarted about every 3 months.   Stable even with Arc.   

This is what I find so mystifying.  There isn't anything different about my Roon usage other than pushing it harder - 3 grouped zones, 3-4 remotes running, 11K albums, 152K tracks.  Lots of Roon Tags and 500 or so unidentified albums.

So as far as I can tell the only difference would be the volume of usage, the size of the library (which isn't that unusual), the number of Tags. 

Anyway, I probably should have switched around the title of this thread, which would be that the Roon forum is moderated to tone down discussion of stability issues.  I do understand that many use it without it being unstable.  Just keep your use moderate!
