That suggestion dates back to the days when "fast machines" were running at 200MHz or so. The problem here is not the speed of the machine, but the network. The default value of w32-get-true-file-attributes is 'local, which means nil when going across the network, but apparently that is not being recognized in all places - which I think is what Eli is investigating.Hmm... There is a suggestion to use it only on fast machines at the same time it is turned on by default. Shouldn't it be the other way around? Btw, I consider my machine to be quite fast even though it is a couple of years old. I suggest we change the default value of this variable to nil (or make the code faster).Dumb question: Is there a way for Emacs to know whether the format is NTFS or FAT(32)? If so, then Emacs could use nil for FAT volumes.
