A clarification: While the first part of my mail described slow access on network volumes, the last part (see below) is about a local (non-SSD) hard disk. So the slowdown is not limited to network file systems.
Actually, anohter customer just contacted me who noticed the same slowdown > at even greater intensity when he upgraded from 10.7 (I believe) to 10.11. > His disk is near-full, so probably has a highly fragmented directory, and > he has only 8 GB of RAM (while I have 20). Acitivity monitor shows that the > "Cached Files" is about 2 GB in his system, and about 5 on mine. So it > seems that recent OSX versions limit the file/dir cache to a percentage of > the RAM, whereas old systems used it all when available. Is that so? > Thomas
