I have now done some timed experiments: - Connected a VPN tunnel to the server - Command prompt in my sandbox - cvs diff -r 1.12 support.pas Result is in the command window in 14 seconds ------- - Commanded a diff in WinCvs using its diff button on that same file and revision - After 17 seconds this showed up in the command window: cvs -z9 update -p -r 1.12 support.pas (in directory C:\Engineering\Projects\PC\AGIAdmin\) =================================================================== Checking out support.pas RCS: D:/CVS/PC/AGIAdmin/support.pas,v VERS: 1.12 *************** - But no diff result as yet - After 2m50s the ExamDiff window popped up with the requested files! ------ - Commanded a diff in the WinCvs command window (same as on command prompt): - cvs diff -r 1.12 support.pas - After 28 seconds the diff shows up in the WinCvs command window ------ Conclusion: When I use the command prompt the speed is acceptable, basically the same as earlier. But when I go through WinCvs the speed degradation is extremely large! There must be some strange thing going on in WinCvs. I can see that there is VPN traffic during the whole 2m50s that the diff works, so there must be some activity that I can't figure out. >Is your reverse DNS Fubar or something?

What can I do to checek whatever you want to know? ping cvsserver on the command line works instantly. ping -a 10.0.0.8 on the other hand returns after 16s with the name resolved and then the ping traffic. Could this be an issue? Should I change my cvsroot from :ntserver:cvsserver:/pc to :ntserver:10.0.0.8:/pc ??? /Bo (Bo Berglund, developer in Sweden) _______________________________________________ Cvsnt mailing list Cvsnt at cvsnt.org http://www.cvsnt.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/cvsnt https://www.march-hare.com/cvspro/en.asp#downcvs
