mac os x,Finder -takes forever to connect to server, or to open shares (list dir


Recommended Posts

hi,

 

i have a persisting problem here - well, basically, it takes sometimes 3 - 5 minutes to connect to the server, and than to list directories in the shares - also takes ages. sometimes finder crashes. sometimes it can't connect. anyway, it PAIN. its been like this since Lion, and nothing changed with Mavericks...upgrading to unraid 5 (from 4.7) or using different protocols (AFP/SMB) - doesn't matter.

(it also happens when disks are spun up, so thats not the issue...)

on windows it takes seconds...

 

i believe there is some problem with mac in general....

 

i'd like to ask if someone knows a fix maybe...(or at lease the reason why this happening...)

 

thanks

i use AFP  (but i checked smb - no difference...so...i don't care what protocol to use as long as it works...)
