Hi Yatin,

How much time is too much time. Is it 10 seconds or 10 minutes or ...?

JCIFS is very fast. Deleting a folder with 100,000 entries should take
less than 2 seconds.

So I would suggest looking in the examples directory for an example
that deletes a file or modify one of the examples to simulate what
you're doing. The you can test your operation on the commandline. If
you find that it is also slow, enable logging and study where the
delay is.

My first guess would be that it's a name service problem. Meaning
JCIFS is trying the name, it times out and then it falls back to
another server or method and then it succeeds.
