Hi
When copying/moving large files between hard disks, I notice a considerable degradation of transfer speed after the first 600 mb - a sudden drop of 50 mb/s to about 10 mb/s.
Salamander version is 2.52 beta 1.
A bug?
Cheers,
Frank

Could it be that the file was still partially cached when you copied it with Total Commander?
I copied a 574 MB file from a heavily fragmented partition to another partition on the same harddrive in 80 s (yes, only 7 MB/s). After deleting it on the destination partition and copying it immediately again, it took only 10 s. The time was still 10 s after viewing a 348 MB Tiff-file.
After a restart, xcopy took also approx. 80 s and 10 s for the second copy. I cannot believe that TC has so damned smart copying routines.
