Questions .. Is it a mapped drive or UNC path? DHCP or fixed ip addresses ? ip/tcp or netbios etc? You using an ip address or a machine name? Using DNS or other to lookup that name ?
What else is the box with the files? Is it tuned for file server or whatever? WG -----Original Message----- From: Neil Middleton [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: 12 June 2003 09:54 To: CF-Talk Subject: CFDIRECTORY over a LAN Guys (and gals), I've been getting some performance problems with cfdirectory of recent. Basically I have written a recursive directory listing function which returns me a query of all the files below a certain folder. This all seems to work perfectly. However, recently the number of files being found has reached approx 2000 causing this list process to take nearly a minute to run(!). The environment is CFMX on Win2K, reading directories on another machine on the LAN. When reading local directories, it runs quite fast (~1 sec). Thing is, does anyone know anything about how CFDIRECTORY works at a system level?? I am trying to work out which is the best option available to me..either upgrading the LAN between the two machines, or running some sort of process on the machine hosting the files (some sort of .exe or maybe even CFMX), or something else altogether.
