Slow network share browsing

Post by spdro »

Hi,

I'm having an issue with browsing windows network shares.
It is significantly slower then windows explorer.
Is there a way to speed that up ?

Please describe in detail the scenario you're measuring. Don't forget to specify what type of network it is and what is the server software.

Sorry it's working normally again.

The setup was.
Windows share between 2 computers in home network using WIFI router.
Folder I wonted to reach had 5000+ small files. Windows explorer showed content of the folder in ~4sec and far after ~2min.

Everything works OK after restart (what a surprise :) ), and I can't reproduce this behavior.

Thanks.

The response time might depend on the panel mode. In some cases, Far requests much more details about the remote files which might cause additional delays. If it's your case, can you please publish here the panel update times for different panel modes?

I've added file owner "O" to status line. That's why it was so slow. Restart reverted the settings.

Thanks
