Slow on UNC network path
Posted: Thu Nov 17, 2011 9:21 am
Hello,
I use xnview mainly for image viewing, usually 1 picture only (double click - full screen view - esc to close)
For pictures on the windows network (UNC paths), it takes up to 1 minute for the picture to come up and display.
It's not the network itself, copying the file to the local drive happens instantly.
There's a lot of computers on our windows network (ca. 100) maybe that's a reason.
Is there a way to speed things up?
I already tried sorting alphabetically in the browser, that made opening faster for pictures on the local drive.
Cheers,
Rainy
