I get slow response even with those. It is quite system dependent. Very unbearable on Solaris, unbearable on Cygwin, irritating with a MinGW build. > Do you think everything works fine with the UNC paths ? I just tested that, and I get similar results with 1.6.3svn (only slight slow behavior with respect to local files) and trunk. That is, using trunk, where the patch is applied, I experience no slowness at all, whereas 1.6.3svn is almost unusable. So, it works fine with UNC paths, too, for what I can see. > If you know/think/believe that the problem is only with Webdav, then it > is not a real problem. So, Jürgen, what we shall do? -- Enrico
