Hello,
 I find accessing a file using UNC path using GNU Emacs (CVS Head, W2K
 and MinGW32 build) very slow when compared to XEmacs. Has anyone
 experienced the same and explored the reason?
 Since I work with computers on LAN, I frequently access files using UNC
 path and end up waiting for significant duration of time. Looking
 forward to see a solution for this problem.

with best regards,
dhruva

Hi,
 Based on some inputs from dak/eliz and some extra digging into Elisp, I
 have the following version which can show good improvements in the
 behaviour from user point of view (in comparision wrt XEmacs).

I have this modified version in my _emacs file:
      ;; For faster opening of files with UNC path
      (defadvice find-file (before find-file-unc first activate)
        "Open file literally if UNC path for better performance"
        (let ((file (replace-regexp-in-string "\\\\" "/" (ad-get-arg
        0))))
          (if (string-match "^//" file)
              (cond ((find-file-literally file)
                     (set-auto-mode)))))) ; Guess the mode

with best regards,
dhruva

Hello,
 This is a modified patch (original patch from Mr.KOBAYASHI Yasuhiro)
including Stefan Monnier's suggested regexp. I do not know where to
add the defvar "vc-hostname-fs-path-re" (currently, I have added in
vc-arch.el as autoloads of vc-arch.el appears before vc-mcvs.el in
loaddefs.el. I know this is error prone assumption, this is the best I
could do due to technical limitations) and this should be fixed. This
could also be a defcustom (I am no expert, just a suggestion).
I have tested this patch and it works fine and does what it is
intended to do. I request the patch to be reviewed and someone with
write access to CVS to kindly apply the patch after suitable
modifications to place the definition & default
"vc-hostname-fs-path-re" correctly.

with best regards,
dhruva
