Hello, I’ve used SambaPOS for many years and think its a fantastic tool. Unfortunately it runs slow and has delays when trying to start orders. I believe this is my own doing from all the little things I’ve tinkered with over the years.
I know there are many tutorials on setting up the sql server, but I am wondering if anyone has any tips for optimizing the computer and tips for networking?
The biggest significant factor will be get at least 8gig ram and a really good fast ssd. If you can get the m.2 full pci lane drives they are the best.
Also avoid using tons of report tags for visual things on entity screens. It’s best to load it to memory and reference that in the entity state.
Ah for terminals you can do j1900 as minimum but I recommend j34 or j64 or i3. The i5 will work but it’s overkill honestly. You only need 4g ram for terminals.
