The nice thing about the current situation is that you get a performance boost automatically. It's the whole reason it's done automatically: we don't want to tell people 'your system is slow because you haven't run some odd command'. We want it to work the best it can doing what it needs to do. I'd happily consider a number of other solutions, including putting index files potentially somewhere else, but I'm not at all happy with requiring an extra command to make things efficient. -- Wes Hardaker Sparta, Inc. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
