2863.0. "Editor response problem" by GIDDAY::BURT (Chele Burt - CSC Sydney, DTN 7355693) Tue Jun 15 1993 02:12

Hello and greetings,

Customer running ALL-IN-1 V3.0

Users in Hong Kong who use their Melbourne system having response time 
problems when using the WPS-PLUS editor. The users are using 486 clones, 
connecting via Pathworks (& satellite) to access ALL-IN-1.
If using WPS-PLUS as the editor, response is reportedly faster if the status
line is OFF, and spacing, rather than Tabbing, is used to format the document.
Other editors (ie EVE or EDT) are rather faster again than WPS-PLUS.

Any ideas on "go faster" techniques for these bods?
I'm still waiting on some more detail from the HK people.

Thanks & regards,

Chele

2863.1Not much...DELBOY::DORANAMy theory is this...Tue Jun 15 1993 09:119
    There probably isn't much that can be done to speed things up in this
    situation - maybe more bandwidth...
    
    Or better still - the 486 clones could run TeamLinks so that editing is
    done on the PC rather than via satellite....
    
    Cheers,
