Description arnaldo 2003-11-19 07:57:02 UTC
I´m having problems with samba in Cobol Programs. When the programs´s directory 
has many files, the performance is very low. In Windows NT/2000 works fine. I 
have +- 5000 programs in directory.

Can you give more details? I.e. what kinds of operations run slow? Found
anything when doing network traces?

I have many(+ 5000) programs files (.int).
I have 1 executable (prxxx00.exe).
This directory is on path environment variable.
When I execute the program prxxx00, the time is very long(20 seconds). If I put 
all files in a windows machine, the time is 4 seconds. My program prxxx00 
call .int programs. For each call, the time is more long using Samba

sorry for the same, cleaning up the database to prevent unecessary reopens of bugs.
