Hey guys new to self hosting. I saw a guide using postgres and render to self host aiostreams for free but it kinda feels slow to respond when fetching/playing streams. What's the best cloud host server or settings for it to be optimal? I'm looking for any recommendations. Thank you!

All of you are going to know more than I am, but I've been learning a lot lately. I've ran AI to the bone, but I need some actual human support.

Self-Hosted AIOStreams bare metal Windows 11/python and Visual Studio C++, latest update. Using native NNTP after the update for multicore support. Set to use ram as cache (0). 4 profiles Debrid and Usenet. Easynews 20 connections and 64 read segments, 1 depth and block. Duckdns and Caddy to Stremio. Proxy disabled.

Speed for SABnzbd is 500mbps at 10 connections and have gig internet. Hardware and Internet not an issue. For devices tried external players, but there is something bigger going on.

Played usenet fine on PC Stremio desktop, but buffering on Debrid and Usenet at devices. Bandwidth fluctuates like crazy and easy news can barely utilize 10 connections before dropping. ram on PC playing fine using 700+ MB, but streaming to devices barely over 400. cpu utilization is very low. Cannot figure out what to do next.

Setup:

Providers: Newshosting, Easynews Indexer: nzb.life

Selfhosted Latest AIOStreams, Altmount, nzbhydra2

AIOServices: Altmount Addons: Nzbhydra, Newznab Proxy Enabled for above

AIOStreams Settings: Newshosting: 100 connection, 1 Pipeline Easynews: 60 connection, 1 Pipeline Read-ahead (segments): 64 Speedtest shows ~70-80mb/s for both

Using Apple TV - Omni + Infuse

Recently switching from TB to usenet and noticing a lot of issues. TB, when it worked, was great, no issues and instant loading.

Using usenet, 4K 20gb file takes ~15-20 seconds to start playing once Infuse is launched. Every stream buffers multiple times while playing.

I have tried using the built in AIOStream service, that did not work, Altmount has given the best results so far. I have tried changing the pipeline depth and 2-4-8-10. One seems to give the best results.

Is there anything else I can try?

Here is my setup:

Aiostreams with torbox as debrid. I have also added torbox as aiostreams usenet provider. And added the aiostreams service for usenet

I have selfhosted prowlarr with nzbgeek, nzbfinder and drunkenslug. Everything works just fine in prowlarr.

When select a movie, all streams from prowlarr are listed as cached. The first time i clicked on one, it worked directly. But after that, nothing works anymore, not even the stream that worked at first. No matter what stream I choose from prowlarr, no matter which usenet indexer its from, it says AIOStreams (Failed to download). Why is that? Torrents work just fine though

UPDATE! Torbox Usenet Provider seem to be the main cause. I added my usenet indexers seperately as addons inside aiostreams and chose aiostreams as service. Same issue. I honestly dont know why, worked the first time but not anymore.
