Hi David, Guessing a bit here, but sounds like the WEBDAV interface is accessing the actual documents, possibly to retrieve properties and such. It might help to apply fragmentation, which could help MarkLogic Server to load the data piece by piece and keep a smaller memory footprint.
But perhaps someone from Mark Logic could respond with more details..

The directories are slow to open, whether using an OS client as in OS X, or oXygen's browser. The slowness seems to be directly related to the amount of data stored in the directory. For example, a directory with 136 files totalling around 250MB of XML data consistently takes 20 seconds or show to return a listing via WebDAV. On the database in question we have uri lexicon enabled, and my assumption would be that the WebDAV functionality would take advantage of this to compile a list of filenames in a directory quickly. I've never understood why the amount of data per se seems to slow down the WebDAV interface as much as it does.
