I had already emailed them with your suggestion that they look for a "pattern", that is if speed hangs when one particular person is the 2nd one coming into the database. I told them that it's up to them to do the experimenting, so we'll see if they take the time to figure it out.

If it's depending on second station, it'd be a problem of LAN, LAN-card or LAN-driver on second station. - Is the database stored on a full server or perhaps on first PC and you use a peer-to-peer network? - I found no question or hint about scratch. How is SCRATCH set? It should be eitherSET SCRATCH OFF or SET SCRATCH TMP to prevent rbase opening temporary files within database-path.

Dezember 2012 14:49 An: RBASE-L Mailing List Betreff: [RBASE-L] - Slowness with 7.6, revisited I had posted this questionbefore about a client who runs 7.6 nice and quick with one person on, thenperformance slams down as soon as a second person is attached (takes up to half a minute to [F8] between rows of a scrolling region, etc). We did an unload (clean), investigated and found a bunch of mismatched DLLs all over the place. We uninstalled RBase, deleted every RBase DLL left out there, reinstalled and updated. Bummer... same thing. One person is fine, after that no one can move around. I'm not a hardware or networking person, so any suggestions would just get passed onto their IT consultant (who the client said "I wouldn't trust to setup my cell phone"). It had been stressed to the IT guy to exclude all RBasedirectories from virus checking, and they say he claims he did but I have no idea how to check. Even so, wouldn't the slowness happen even with ONE person attached if it was a virus checking problem? Karen
