Re: Opening XL files

The IFS is a pretty poor performer under OS/400.  Now, using the same disk 
drives and controllers, and carve out a portion of them to be used by an 
IXS card running some sort of Windows; and you'll get a lot better 
performance.

Opening XL files






List people,

Is it typical for it to take about twice as long to open an Excel file 
that
resides on the IFS as it does to open the 'same' file residing on another
Windows machine on the same local network?

4 seconds vs. 2 seconds is not an issue, but 40 seconds vs. 20 seconds 
gets
to be a problem with users with a low patience level (me).
