Gus, The performance reduction in the cpu occurs with even one slave sitting idle. When other slave machines are brought on line, the hits are more frequent but something occurs every four seconds which reduces the cpu performance by about 90 percent. From my limited understanding of the mechanics, this should not occur with simple file locking or checking operations. I can have all sorts of other more intensive network operations going on without significant performance degradation — only 3DS slaves cause this problem. Thanks, Alec Jason
