Hi,

I have experienced an issue for quite some time, and now I finally
decided to deal with it - vim gets painfully slow accessing files
using UNC paths on Windows (paths that look like \\server\share\folder
\file). I have tested with Windows XP and Vista on several machines.
Using an old fashioned drive letter goes about x20 times faster -
otherwise vim freezes for long periods: 10-20 secs.

I have tested with both vim 7.1 and 7.2 (including gvim, and both 32-
bit and 64-bit vim). I have tried without any customizations loaded,
and without swap-files, but no change.

I can see that a few other people have seen the same problem, and that
there might be a fix/workaround in Cream (I tried to peek in the files
there, but couldn't find anything...)

Any tips on how to solve this?
