xgpt Posted May 16, 2018 Posted May 16, 2018 (edited) Both my Orange Pi Pc and Orange Pi Zero have horrifically slow/laggy/issues with SSH. Random drops, connection issues, and EXTREME lagginess with keyboard input. Sometimes the session will "freeze" randomly. This is after re-installation on fresh SD cards that work well otherwise. Power supplies have been used before with same boards and same SD cards, but after re-installation of various armbian installations, it's laggy. I'm not even sure which version I started with initially with my orange pi zero which I had first, but I had upgraded and upgraded and upgraded through versions...and figured a fresh install couldn't hurt. It hurt. These are being used as headless machines, SSH performance is extremely important, and it's on base installs with almost nothing running, loads on the machines are super super low and SSH is still lagging. Can't even use Vi/Nano to edit a text file without it borking up and needing a restarted SSH session. I don't have this issue with straight debian or straight ubuntu on an x86 laptop. Just these little boards. Anyone else having these issues? What was your solution? **edit** Would like to add that this happens MUCH more with the 4x kernel than the 3x kernel. But still happening with both. What's up? Edited May 16, 2018 by xgpt Would like to add something
mstroh Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 I had the same experience with the NanoPi NEO Armbian Stretch 4.14.18. I did not recognize it with older version / kernel. But I used it only for a short time.

But still happening with both. What's up? Do you use ethernet or WiFi as SSH-Connection? Do you use NetworkManager (nmtui) or /etc/network/interfaces for configuring the network-device? Did you try another SD-Card or did you check the SD-Card? (Type, Speed?) Do you use a heat-sink? Or a case? On my I use only ethernet and disconnected the WiFi-Antenna. Because Iam using the pcm5102a-FriendlyArm-Sound-Hat/module my Neo is driven by legacy armbian Linux neo-pcm5102a 3.4.113-sun8i #18 SMP PREEMPT Wed Jan 24 22:10:49 CET 2018 armv7l GNU/Linux With that kernel I didnt got any ethernet up/downs, no problem with SSH and also no problem using the Neo with the pcm5102a-I2S-Soundcard as WebRadio while node.js is running for Node-Red. The Neo has a 16GB SanDisk Ultra uSD-Card and is only powered by a USB-Port of a 8-Port Multi-Charger from ANKER. The Neo is connected to a 100MBit Switch (not a ma GigaBit-Switch). The Neo is configured for static networking via /etc/network/interfaces, because I had some trouble with nmtui on the Neo - so I switched back to this configuration-type - which seems to be stable for me on the Neo (and for me its a one-time config-job mostly copy&paste from my documentation) wlan0 isnt configured on my Neo and if you use wlan0 your drop-out could also be healed with some config inside the /etc/networ/interfaces: # Disable power saving on compatible chipsets (prevents SSH/connection dropouts over WiFi) #wireless-mode Managed #wireless-power off
mstroh Posted May 17, 2018 Posted May 17, 2018 Do you use ethernet or WiFi as SSH-Connection? Ethernet (nano Pi NEO) Do you use NetworkManager (nmtui) or /etc/network/interfaces for configuring the network-device? No, DHCP default Did you try another SD-Card or did you check the SD-Card? (Type, Speed?) No, 8 GB Class10 Kingstick Do you use a heat-sink? Or a case? 3D print Case + CPU heat-sink (not original) I edited a file with vim and had 2-3 seconds no respondig, did not pay attention until this post from xgpt to it. But he hast bigger issues than me "... borking up and needing a restarted SSH session." I never had this problem.

Or a case? 3D print Case + CPU heat-sink (not original) DHCP default - whats is the default from you view? From NetworkManager or configured in /etc/network/interfaces? Did you try the NanoPi Neo without a case (my Neo has at this time no case and the original FriendlyARM heat-sink)
