Not correct. IMO. What would happen if this app were installed on a 100Mbps LAN? He'd then be asking what to do to speed up the app, not try to fix the LAN.

>>>So beck to the "LAN speed", the fact remains that dropdown loads in 2 seconds from Local Disk, and around 4 seconds in a "true" 1GIG networm. And theoretically, for 1GIG speed (being 10 times faster than 100MB), the 20 second should dropdown to 2 seconds (for the LAN's delay contribution). It all makes sense that some how there is somethng wrong with the LAN.
