Hi there,
Sorry for bumping that old thread, I just decided to fix my Lan disk
slowdown trouble today.
/In Softimage, if I try to access down to 5 levels of
sub-directories(Z://directory/directory/directory/directory/ ) it takes
5 minutes to get to it./
I'm trying the solution mentionned by Vladimir below,
SI_BROWSER_DONT_CHECK_CHILDREN_FOLDERS
Controls whether Softimage checks folders for subfolders when displaying
the file browser. Setting this variable to 1 may speed up file
operations on NFS systems, particularly on Linux. When set, folders are
always drawn with an expandable ‘+’ whether or not they contain subfolders.
This is supposed to be in the Setenv.bat , right ? I don't find that
line in the Setenv.bat file.
Am I supposed to add it ?
Sorry might sound dumb, but I'm not super familiar with Setenv things..
Thank you.
Olivier

Hi guys,
I'm having troubles with XSI and a network disk (Lacie BigDisk).
It's a Lan (rj45) connexion, and whenever I try to access it it's
getting very slow.
In Softimage, if I try to access down to 5 level of
sub-directories(Z://directory/directory/directory/directory/ ) it
takes 5 minutes to get to it.
It's working rather well in Windows7. So much better that I use to
drag and drop things from windows to SI rather to navigate using
SI explorers.
Might be a configuration thing, any idea ?
