Retrospect Engine & Console on Apple Silicon


Recommended Posts

Is anyone running their engine on Apple Silicon?

Are you seeing any issues?

 I've got a "spare" M1 Studio on which I can run the engine but wanted to see if the consensus is if it would be better than an 2018 i5 mini.

I'm hoping to see a native version of the engine & client soon.  One less translated app.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Jon

Robin,

Will I see any improvement in performance or will the network still be the limiting factor? Some systems on the local network take several hours to scan. 98% of the systems have SSDs.  I realize there's lots more files in the current macOS to deal with, but even with a selector of just the home folders (/Users), I'm not seeing quick executions.

As you might recall, I remember minutes per client for scan & backup, especially with v6, classic Mac OS (9.x) and slow networks (10 megabit or even 230 kbps). So hours seems excessive and I'm hoping that faster interfaces (TB3 & 4) and processors will improve performance significantly.

Thanks.

Cheers,
Jon
