Problem solved - or at least we hope so!

I should have remembered this one but I've been to sleep a lot of times
since it last arose!

Problem is caused by having the workspace on a shared network drive.

Sadly IBM defaults the workspace to MyDocuments (does anyone _ever_ want it
there?) and in some shops that is on a networked drive so that it can be
backed up each night.

The performance profile of such a network drive is for occasional
store/retrieval use.  When WDSc hits it from multiple users all making lots
of itty-bitty file entries etc. performance goes to hell in a hand basket.

It would be really nice if IBM would build a check into WDSc and issue a
warning if you attempt to use a non-local drive!
