?[TC 8.50x32] Local directory reading is too slow!

Tested TCx32 beta 4 and it is a winner.

TCx64 beta 5 work like a charm. Many thanks.

Seems like the icon extraction in the background and the cached lookup of the shares have helped!

Now that I have moved the function to check for shared folders to the background too, there shouldn't be any major slowdowns any more when reading and displaying directories...

Still not fixed. I am on Windows 7, Haswell CPU, SSD+HDD, pretty fast config.

With NIS, 360+, Avast AV software, files in folders are shown very fast, no lags when opening folder.

With AVG, Bitdefender, KIS and few others, files are shown with lag depending on how many and how big they are.

Windows Explorer behaves differently. When I open a folder, files are shown immediately, but icons appear after AV checks them. It doesn't matter which AV I use.

Please fix if possible.

They apparently make optimizations for Explorer, but not TC...

So there is no way to fix it except using AV which is not slowing down TC?

No, unfortunately not. I have already moved everything to the background thread except for the FindFirstFile/FindNextFile loop.

It would be necessary to correct the implementation:
