Thank you Agent Kith for the awesome release! I just downloaded your latest ISO with the network fix, and was able to use the Option "Snake Oil From RAM". The clock source used previously with my installation on SSD was "HPET"; but with the RAM option, my clock source is changed to "TSC". The TSC is the preferred clocksource between the two counters, as it is the fastest one. Is that true?
I gotta say I can tell right away that there is a noticeable improvement to the timbre and timing in the audio; i don't know whether it's the OS in RAM or TSC clock source. Maybe that's a direction for the future to offload the OS away from the SSD into RAM?
By the way, I'm using the MPD (dsd-rt) player. Keep up the great work!
