Re: [Framers] Frame2017 slow on network??
Our intent network is heavily protected because our company deals with consumer financial information. As a result we have both high volume of traffic on the network and a great deal of behind the scenes security software. FrameMaker is slow in our network due to the latency built in because of those factors. I tell my people to work from their local drives and archive and share on network drives only when required. And don’t get me started on how Windows 10 screws things up. > On Aug 17, 2018, at 14:58, Doug wrote: > > I dunno...that sounds kinda subversive to me. :D > > On Fri, Aug 17, 2018 at 3:50 PM, Robert Lauriston > wrote: > >> Best practice is to use Subversion or some other source control system >> with file locks (i.e., not Git). >> >> Keeping source in shared directories on a file server is about as out >> of date as single-user installed software that runs only on Windows. >> >>> On Fri, Aug 17, 2018 at 12:36 PM, wrote: >>> I've had that problem as well.

Re: [Framers] Frame2017 slow on network??
Best practice is to use Subversion or some other source control system with file locks (i.e., not Git). Keeping source in shared directories on a file server is about as out of date as single-user installed software that runs only on Windows.

Re: [Framers] Frame2017 slow on network??
I've had that problem as well. As I understand it, it has to do with handshaking protocols and packet prioritization. The best answer I have found is to work on the files locally, and then save them back up to the network drive. Suboptimal, but faster.

Re: [Framers] Frame2017 slow on network??
Yes, but it's likely two factors. First, if you're working in a book and the component files have imported by ref graphics, you're talking hundreds of files coming from the net to your box. Second, unless your company is atypical, each one of those files is virus-checked both ways, as it comes on to your box from the net and leaves your box to the server. This adds up to a heavy network load. The server, the network, your NIC, and the PC all have to be up to the task. Best fix is to work locally and use the server for backup. Subversion or source control is great. However, I don't have that option, so I store on my local Dropbox folder (so I have my own cloud backup) and use Microsoft SyncToy to sync up with the server a couple times a day.

Re: [Framers] Frame2017 slow on network??
Working with FrameMaker files on a network drive is asking for trouble. To share files within a group, use Subversion or whatever source control system you have already.

Re: [Framers] Frame2017 slow on network??
I had my files on the network; any time I updated the book Frame would go black momentarily and "unresponsive" would display in the title bar. Putting my files on C: fixed this.
