Hello all

browsing in mxm editor is so slow we have a decent library gig lan only two of us access it
vista 64bit machines etc etc any idea how to speed it up!

thanks

[nobski]

thanks for the immense response

Maybe the lack of replies is because no one has used the feature yet besides you, i admit i have not yet tested it but i could run some tests tonight and see what happens if anything.

nobski, how many materials do you have in one folder?

[nobski]

smallest folder 7

largest folder ral colours 183

[tom]

When you place them on a local path, is it faster?

[nobski]

copied to c:
and lots faster

[tom]

So, it looks like the bottleneck is network, not Maxwell. Are you using a 100Mpbs switch? I'd suggest 1Gbps...

[nobski]

hmmm but we are using 1 gig lan on whole network...

role on 2g lan!

[tom]

If you think SATA3 speed is 3Gbps, naturally 1Gbps would still be 3 times slower and it's not something we can help. If you experience more than 3 times of loss in speed, check other potential applications (antivirus, firewall etc) which may be processing files at the same time.

[nobski]

yeah no probs with anti virus or other system related progs slowing us up its the volume and 1 gb lan
ho hum... means making more cups of tea

+1 i have the same problem with nobski..

my material library is on a NAS system and very very slow compared to version 1.7

i have no problem outside maxwell with my NAS
