I recently upgraded to Janus v2.1. On the DOS side when I CD to one of the 4 jlinked drives and do a Dir, it takes about 25 seconds before the listing appears! Pretty slow. Anyone know the cause/solution is?

Ken, try to set ADDBUFFERS for the Amigadrive where the JLink virtual drives reside higher – this might help. Manfred <- flying from FRA via Amiga Autopilot 1.06

Manfred, currently the addbuffers is at 500, still more?

Ken, I just do not know. I have 250 and it works good enough. But it also depends obviously on the size of the virtual drive, the number of files , directories etc. on the JLink drive, the speed of the Amiga hard drive and somewhat on the Amiga processor speed. I suggest, just try more. For the AutoBoot drive C= say in the manual that you should have 30 to 50 buffers for each Megabyte of the virtual (AB) drive. But I don't know if this is also true for a JLink drive. Manfred <- flying from FRA via Amiga Autopilot 1.06
