I've had very similar issues working with source stored in IFS, especially with folders with large numbers of files. I've brought it up on this list before but came away thinking I was the only one with the problem. I hope you don't mind me saying so but I'm glad I've got company.

Kurt,


I work remotely over VPN (we use Cisco) most of the time, and have been since 2007. I've never seen a performance problem like that, even when my home connection was only 1.5 Mbps down, 256 Kbps up. The only time I consistently had poor performance was for a couple of weeks after the VPN server had been updated, but I still had the old VPN client (would have been nice if they'd told everyone to update, rather than just scratch their heads and say "Must be your ISP").

Anyway, if you're having this kind of a problem with a connection as fast as yours, it's most likely an issue in your VPN setup. It's certainly not normal behavior.

Subject: [WDSCI-L] RDi over VPN - speed

I've mentioned in other posts that I recently made the move to working remotely. A refresh of an outline has taken up to 4 minutes (a number of copy sources and external files). Right now I'm running a search through RDi over a folder in the IFS where we keep java source, and it's taking "forever" (I don't recall when I started it, but it's been a few minutes at least).

Is this just the way it is? I don't know how to test VPN speeds. I ran speedtest.net from my location to the office location, and it clocked at 30Mbps.

If there's something I can report back to the office , that'd be great. Or maybe it's just the new reality I need to work with.
