Long time to read and write files to a network server in LV 7.1 vs. LV 6.1

[Swamp Thing]

We have a large application written in LabView that has a feaure to read and write a set of text based files to/from a network server (kind of a set of .ini files). Over the past few years we have switched from LV 6.1 to LV 7.1. We have a customer who has observed a dramatic increase in the time it takes to execute this between the 2 versions. The time has increased from 20 seconds to 3 minutes for one particular set of files, and these results are repeatable. Has anyone else seen this behavior?

Thanks, Chip

Hi Chip, sorry for the late response here.  I'm not sure of any network slowdowns between those versions of LabVIEW.  A few questions:

- How are you connecting to the fileserver?  \\server_name\share_name\file.txt ??
- Have you stripped your program to the bare essentials that are doing the network transferring?  It might help if we could see that.

Thanks,
mike
