AS 2.52 feels much slower than 2.51
AS 2.52 feels much slower than 2.51
See title bar. Especially when copying files it often takes 1 or 2 seconds until the copied file(s) occur in AS 2.52. With 2.51 they instantly were visible. Since a couple of years each new SS/AS version has been an improvement compared to the previous one - 2.52 breaks this rule - it feels much worse than the previous version.

Re: AS 2.52 feels much slower than 2.51
Could you reproduce this problem? Please try to (temporarily) install AS 2.51 and make sure the 2.52 is really slower side by side on same operations.
There could be another cause of the problem, typically anti-virus software.
AS 2.51 is available at ftp://ftp.altap.cz/pub/altap/salamand/as251.exe
Specify some unique directory during installation.

Re: AS 2.52 feels much slower than 2.51
This problem is not 100% reproducible, but for 90%. For example, AS 2.52 feels much slower invoking the file viewer, pressing ESC and trying to select a new file. Often, it takes approx. 1 or 2 seconds for AS until it becomes responsive after having pressed ESC in the AS file viewer. I don't have these problems with AS 2.51 (which is installed in parallel).

It looks like some problem on your computer. We have tens of thousands AS 2.52 installed right now and other users are not complaining, as you can see on this forum.
Re: AS 2.52 feels much slower than 2.51
This thread, Problem: Delayed View and Delete Operations, dealt with CTFMON.EXE & slow file views.
At the time, it was the change from SS 2.0 to AS 2.5 that made it apparent. I would not have expected a change in that regard going between 2.51 & 2.52, but it is easy enough to look into.
(Knowing the problems that ctfmon.exe can cause, I automatically nix it from any computer I get in contact with. So in that respect, I don't know if there has been any change with the interaction between ctfmon & AS since the time of my original post.)

Camper, please try to look at ctfmon.exe. It could cause this problem.
