Has anyone noticed any general flakiness when using JDE and Emacs with
ClearCase?  We just switched to ClearCase, using dynamic views, on Windows
NT 4.0, with the ClearCase NFS client turned on.  Since then, lots of flaky
stuff has been happening.  Most of these things happen even with local Java
files not in ClearCase, but they seem to be related to the NFS client, and
process IO.  Specifically:

1. Starting the bean shell hangs -- even after waiting several minutes for
it to start.

2. Compilation doesn't finish - the 'finished' message is not displayed.
However, if I do CONTROL-ALT-DELETE to bring up the "Windows NT Security"
box (used to bring up the task manager, etc., and it hides the desktop
temporarily) and then hit cancel, the 'finished' message appears in the
compilcation buffer.

3. Things are slow in general, not just in Emacs.

I could submit a bug report, but I suspect that this isn't really JDE's
fault.  Just wondering anyone has seen these kind of problems with
ClearCase, and has any workarounds.  Any Emacs settings related to process
IO and polling, timeouts, etc., that might help here?

Thanks.
