> In case of upload with FTPClient the upload is slow. Pay attention to progress bar or similar GUI gadget. If not programmed correctly, they could slow down transfer a lot. Also, try running the FTP component in a worker thread, maybe with a priority set to something higher than the main trhread. Having a separate thread make the GUI not interfere with the transfer. If you code update the GUI and you use a thread, pay attention on how you do it. Avoid Synchronize as it defeat multithreading. Have you thread update a variable and have the main thread read that variable, using a critical section to avoid contention. Do not poll that variable too fast, use a TTimer to check it once a second for example.
If you have a really fast network, disk speed may be the limiting factor. See the FTP component source and change it so that the files are read using much larger buffer. See Arno's message. You may also enlarge winsock buffer and use larger buffer in twsocket used for data channel. -- [EMAIL PROTECTED] The author of the freeware multi-tier middleware MidWare The author of the freeware Internet Component Suite (ICS) http://www.overbyte.be -- To unsubscribe or change your settings for TWSocket mailing list please goto http://lists.elists.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/twsocket Visit our website at http://www.overbyte.be
