We are having problems with the performance of AlisaShare on a
VAX-8530. In general, dragging files to and from Alisa appears
to be very slow, opening and closing folders is extremely slow.

Usually we find it impossible to automatically mount Alisa volumes
as start time, you have to go into the chooser to mount the volume.

This contrasts with an SE-30 server that is extremely fast and
always mounts automatically.

We have all our MACs directly connected to the ethernet.

Have any Alisa users had similar experiences and have they solved
them ?

Michael.
