I know there is a reason (there should be anyway :) ) for the LPRng lpstat
to be much slower than the OS (Solaris) provided lpstat.
Running in my old environment lpstat -a takes just under 1 second to
complete, maybe the information isn't 100% correct? It more feels like the
original lpstat asks the local lpd if the printer is enabled or not.
When running lpstat in a lprng environment it takes a long time to
complete. Aprox 15-25 seconds..
Normally it doesn't matter to much since users doesn't run lpstat -a their
self to often :)
The problem comes when they are using FrameMaker. When opening the "print
window" in FrameMaker FM runs "lpstat -a" and outputs it to a file, then
it lists all the printers from the file giving the users the opporunity to
choose a printer..
Is there a way to speed up the way lpstat -a works with LPRng? We have
more then 300 queues and are growing almost each day..
Sincerely,
Max!
