Subject  :  slow performance under Win2K?
Size(KB) :  0


Has anyone else seen some slow performance copying large sets of
files under Windows 2000? I do not know what the difference is, but
I've seen slower performance with the same file systems / hard drives
under Win2K/1.2 GHz Athlon/512 MB RAM than with a scrawny P5-200 with
64 MB RAM running Win98. 

When I copy a large tree, it starts off reasonably snappy, and then
it eventually slows way down. It seems to be obvious only when moving
a GB+ of files around. I've seen it take 30 seconds to copy a single 50k file.
I usually have to bail out when I notice this happening.

Any ideas or suggestions?

Thanks,

Joseph Maddison
