Performance problems

[Andrew McRobert]

hi David

thanks for your reply. I think you're right, it is a network issue. I've
tried running the tests from another computer (same ethernet), and the same
documents open in under 3 secs (down from approx 45 secs).

	Something's badly broken!
	Try copying the sem file with ftp to and from the same
	machines: you should be within an order of magnitude.

	Feel free to send mail: I think you have a networking
	problem, and also have a look at
	http://www.oreilly.com/catalog/samba/chapter/book/appb_01.html
	for the simple stuff.
