And reduce the size of your folders :) Thanks a lot! It worked. I doubled the values for the "default" login class, and now the "big" folders open instantly! (the Alpha machine used to spend a few seconds to open them... but FBSD with dual 200MHz PPro seems to beat the 64-bit power of DEC). Do you think I should keep the malloc cache size doubled also, or is it better to leave it as it was before? Again, thank you very much.
