Re: [Ql-Users] Why so slow?

Hi, Put simply, the record "update" forces a flushing of all the buffers for the file. When using the SMSQ/E routines, this may give rise to writing several sectors to the disk, one after the other, which is slow. My win driver handles that a bit differently - there is no buffer to flush per se.

Re: [Ql-Users] Why so slow?

Have you tried converting to a *freshly formatted* (instead of "made empty") win7 qxl-win file? It could well be that the win7 format is somehow corrupted. Tobias > Am 06.08.2016 um 11:46 schrieb François Van Emelen > : > > Yesterday evening I copied my win2_

Re: [Ql-Users] Why so slow?

Yesterday evening I copied my win2_ (my default) to another location and linked it to QPC2/SMSQE as WIN7_. I deleted all files and directories with PWfiles. I then defragmented my hard drive. Conversion to that empty win7_ took more than 23 minutes... not much faster than before. Lack of space,

Re: [Ql-Users] Why so slow?

It could depend on a couple of things I should imagine: a) Whether the win file is fragmented on your PC's hard disk b) Whether the win file is full so each write it has to be extended first to make room c) The size of your swap file on the PC and how that is being used (again that may be

[Ql-Users] Why so slow?

Hi, Why is writing to WIN device so slow compared to writing to RAM and DOS device? Converting a 500KB DBF-file (dbase3/foxbase) DBS-file from dos1_ 1) to RAM1_ less than 15 sec. 2) to DOS1_ less than 20 sec. 3) to WIN2_ more than 25 MINUTES Why such a huge difference? François Van
