1Mb up & 4Mb down - Remote NAS - LO 5.0.4.2
Using LO was v.slow until I set the temp folder to a local drive - now it is "within expectations" for remote file access.
In my case I need the remote lock for multi-system/user access

On startup selecting "File-Recent" takes ages presumably while remote files (many) are checked to see if they are there - this is what should be spun off. I already know if my network is up or down and if the file is likely to have been removed or not so a recent file can still be listed as recent. It was initially very unnerving to see many missing from the recent list when the Internet link was down at system startup (!?@ NFS & Mount) Better to just be told "Can't find file" when and if an inaccessible file is selected but continue to list as recent if it really was.

Some issue with 'remote' file mode.
1) saving takes forever. The lock state is not good for remote file save. Spin that task off. That's what multithreading is for. 2) local temp storage vs network. Use local for recovery. Not everyone has gigibit bandwidth. Image I start the program and has to connect to google drive to even finish starting up? What If my network is down? Local lock files please.

I'd like to type 'ctrl-s' and get back to work, not wait for my Google Drive to release me, if ever. I wait minutes the first time I use this version. Let that process run in the background. Get back to typing.
