I have had this issue with QB64 for years, but have just finally decided to bring up the issue.
Here is where the issue happens: I have a hardware point-to-point VPN between work and home. I have a share set up on the server which we will call drive z: I am running QB64 locally on my c: drive. I open a .BAS file from drive z:, make some changes, and save it. This is where the issue happens. It takes FOREVER to save. I just saved a program with 11,912 lines and it took just under 9 minutes for it to save. Of course smaller programs take less time, but even they take a lot of time.
The VPN works great - there are no speed issues here. I ran tests and have no issues. Backups with large amounts of data run across the VPN late every night without issue. If I copy the same .BAS file it completes this operation in less than 1 second regardless of direction (work>home vs. home>work) - there is something about when QB64's IDE writes the .BAS file that is causing this issue.
It is not the antivirus causing the issue either as I have tried this with the AV disabled and had the same result.
I am assuming that the system that the IDE uses to save is creating some kind of bottleneck here? Does the save routine write and close repeatedly? I am grabbing at straws here.
This is not a big issue since I know to avoid it so if I must work on a file locally, I will copy it, work on it, and then send it back rather than try to save across the VPN.
Thanks,
dano
