Hi
I used to work from a server located in our office, which used to be pretty fast.
Our IT has now moved our server over 200 miles away.
Since the server has moved i have been getting issues with AutoCAD freezing when using various commands Copy, Paste, Hatch etc: Opening and saving drawings is now a nightmare. My average file sizes are 5 to 30meg, some at 130meg which take 10mins or more to open. i have asked for the server to be returned but dont think this is going to happen.
We are using Blue Coat Proxyclient and fibre optic connection.
Can anyone explain how i can speed things up or why it is bad practice to have a server off site.
Does CAD constantly talk to the server when working on drawings? it seems like i have a constant lag.
Any help would be great.
PS am not that clued up on the IT side of things
Thanks
