SharePoint WebDAV performance
In Vista, connecting to a MOSS 2007 server via WebDAV (Windows explorer, specifically) is very quick, with virtually no lag. In Windows 7, however, there's significant lag, upwards of 30 seconds from the time you click a folder to open it and the contents are revealed. This is both for the first click (say, opening a library) and then for each subfolder.Anybody getting better performance than this with WebDav? And/or, any reasons why this might be happening?Thanks!

You may want to disable the automatic adjustment for the TCP window size. Rightclick a Command prompt icon, and 'run as administrator' Try this command: netsh interface tcp set global autotuninglevel=disabledRating posts helps other users Mark L. Ferguson MS-MVP

Thanks for the idea. Does this change require a reboot, and is it permanent? I just tried it without a reboot, and unfortunately, it makes things worse if anything.

Ferguson MS-MVP Hello Mark L. FergusonRating posts helps other users,but there are peoples with rights to set posts as answers, that type something no so smart and then set it by answer by yourself.How this helps others?Why there is rating system if someone can rate himself and to decide what is helpful insted of man initiated the post.Why some one with the rights to make changes set post of man who asked the help as answer but not of the people that wasted theit time trying to hemp him.?In that way people that try to help does not get points to their helpful work, but point goes to some one what is here onlyfor help

I'm wondering if anyone has any updates on WebDAV performance in Win 7. I use SharePoint 2007 enough that this problem makes Win 7 unusable for me at work.Perhaps it's resolved in a later build?

It is a bit slower. I'm averaging 3 seconds to browse to a site or document library + the same to drill down.

Is that 3 seconds with build 7022? Because that would be a bit of an improvement for me. In build 7000, it's closer to 10 seconds or more, in many cases.
