So originally I thought I'd only need 4-5 cameras but as I started setting them up, I realized I needed more. Right now I'm sitting at 7 cameras and think if I can add just 1 more I'll be satisfied for now. I want to add 1 more IPC-Color4K-X, they are by far the best cameras in my current setup. My CPU usually stays in the 60% range but memory is ranging from 65% and up, I've even seen it hit 99% sporadically.
I believe I've gone through most optimization steps on here. I know they are doing the direct recording (no reencoding). I have them all set to 15 fps on the main stream and substream. I think they have a "frames" setting as well but those are set to 30. Maybe that's something to change?
Should my setup be performing better? I think another 8mp color camera w my current settings will kill my pc. Hoping there are more tweaks I can do to make this work. Any thoughts? Thanks in advance.
