Re: IFS vs Windows file serving

Tony,
From experience, I have found the IFS to be comparable to most Windows
servers. There is one caveat - the QDLS folder and subfolders perform horribly.

Subject: IFS vs Windows file serving



Hi,

I recently moved a bunch of Access databases to the IFS.got tired of
"fighting" with the Windows admins over needed disk space.



Anyway, is there some information on the relative performance of "IFS file
serving" as compared to "Windows file serving"? I CAN move these databases 
to an IXS Win2000 server if this will make a big difference in performance
for users accessing these Access "databases".



TIA
