I did a test with a file on the network called "Directions.doc". I saved it to .docx and .odt, then saved the .odt to Directions2.doc to see if the problem was the file format. I opened the file by clicking on it in Dolphin: Directions.doc - 2 seconds. Directions.docx - 32 seconds Directions.odt - 32 seconds Directions2.doc - 2 seconds All these files open "instantly" on the desktop, but on the network there is clearly a problem, which suggests something like excessive I/O's which choke the network. I have been experiencing this for a least 2 years I think, but have only just seen that it is associated with the file suffix. I have reproduced this problem a few times in doing this note and it seems consistent, so it's not an issue with the network or disks going to sleep. I hope this helps.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
