"time cp -r /storage/.xbmc/userdata/Thumbnails/* /storage/downloads/Thumbnails"
Seems a valid test to me. I'm surprised the difference was so great, but this is certainly interesting information. Thanks.
What might be interesting is installing a new add-on or skin. I think the write speed would be significant in that.
I seem to remember Aeon Nox took a couple of minutes to install. Installing from a zip file would avoid internet download speed being the bottleneck.
Another test would be something like:
Code:
./texturecache.py C movies
