I actually got to spend some time watching movies and have noted some non-reproducible pauses in the HD Video while the audio goes on and then the video catchs-up to the audio. I haven't gotten a log file for that (sorry, was watching the movies with family). It only happens a few times an hour. I _am_ running SMB (FreeNAS - CIFS). It is not terribly difficult to switch to NFS (I already have NFS available for previous XBMC devices).
I have seen the NAS feed 72 Mbps over CIFS to the FTV for brief periods of time. I find this number 'strange' based on previous non-FTV ARM devices. I will try some SMB tests and then some NFS tests. Typical for an BD (BD ISO, AVC) movie is the 40-50Mbps range. If I Recall, CIFS is fairly chatty with overhead.
Do I need the NFS mounts writable in order to download SRTs in the 'new Gotham way'? I don't mind them being stored 'Next to Video'.
I was unable to get my thumbs and art on the NAS this weekend, I still mean to attempt that as the flash on the FTV is getting pretty full -- although XBMC is only using about 500Meg of 'Data' in addition to the application size
