It's the only way I could test the performance from here. I open a
master document located at 'http://...' which includes child documents.
Try the test files attached here:

I get very slow behavior with those, without involving the net.
IIRC, those files were didn't contain more than a few characters. That
is no problem at all. I only had problems at work, where my user home
directory is somewhere on the network, using UNC-paths. So, to emulate a
slow file system, I access these same files over the web from home.
Do you think everything works fine with the UNC paths ?
If you know/think/believe that the problem is only with Webdav, then it
is not a real problem.
