A few years ago i discontinued using the Udoo x86 Ultra 8GB (first edition) because it was simply too slow for what i needed to do. For the last week i've been testing different operating systems and configurations trying to put this little machine back to use. I'm currently planning on having, it running a small ftp server. At the moment my choice is between Windows Server 2016 or Debian, both systems seems very snappy. My main problem is, no matter which operation system i use, it doesn't seem to be able to handle my full internet connection which is 1000mbit up/down, according to the system its running 1gbps full duplex, and its cabled with CAT 6, i notice the CPU is getting maxed out doing the download test, and my internet connection is getting capped at around 300-400mbit up/down. My own conclusion is the CPU is simply just not powerful enough to handle the 1000mbit connection. Can anyone comfirm my hypothesis, or maybe have a solution if this can be fixed.
