Yes it does, but it is only the zwave-hid that is super slow. I do the same thing on usbnet and it reads the whole region much faster. > Also, this is weird: > > Reading config: 100% 1664 KiB done > Reading config: 100% 1664 KiB done > > [phil@rider ~]$ ls -lh /tmp/9dump > -rw-r--r-- 1 root root 457K Apr 6 18:39 /tmp/9dump > > That's a pretty big discrepency... :/ The discrepancy is because 1664 KiB is the whole region, whereas 457 KiB is the used portion of the region. Ideally, we would only read the region once and only read the portion that is used, but unfortunately a) I don't know of a way to get the length of the region without reading the whole thing and b) I don't know a way to tell the remote to stop feeding me data once it had started sending me data, so I have to read the whole thing. Perhaps there is some better way, but I don't know of one, yet. > Either way your patch works, applying.

Eh, I'm inclined to say it is fine for now (this is mostly a power user feature), and hopefully we can fix it someday to only read the config once. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Minimize network downtime and maximize team effectiveness.
