Hi, I think the problem may be related with VirtualBox but I'm not 100% sure. The upshot is when I access a file on the Host O/S via a mapped network drive, it's very slow (due to network timeouts it appears). Please see the details below. Comments? Topology -------- Network: 192.168.25.x [bird] <---> [ zoom] samba server + Host O/S - openSUSE 11.0 | VM - WinXP SP/2 | +--- [ fly ] Host O/S - openSUSE 11.0 Test Setup ---------- o Office 2007, simple PPT file with two slides, no background - file size 37K Test ---- o Open the file o Change three characters and save the file Monitoring ---------- o On the VM, running `windump' o On the Host O/S, running `tcpdump' Test #1 ------- Access the file via a mapped network drive to `\\VBOXSVR\my_home_dir' Observations ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Approximately six second delay to open and save the file. Test #2 ------- Placed the file on [bird]. Observations ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Opens under one second and saves in a little over a second. Test #3 ------- Placed the file on [fly]. Observations ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Same as when the file is on [bird] -- Pablo Sanchez - Blueoak Database Engineering, Inc Ph: 819.459.1926 Fax: 760.860.5225 (US) _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users ------------------------------------------------------- -- Pablo Sanchez - Blueoak Database Engineering, Inc Ph: 819.459.1926 Fax: 760.860.5225 (US) _______________________________________________ vbox-users mailing list [email protected] http://vbox.innotek.de/mailman/listinfo/vbox-users
