Proko2 client performance? (was: proko2 client very sluggish?)

HI Thomas,

I think it might be normal depending on the number of folders and subfolders 
you have and the latency of the connection.
For me over LAN it always has been very fast, so I would say
your 3 and a half minutes are quite long.

Did you check the log to see if there are some problems?
Might there be DNS problems?
What does the console output say, if you start Kontact there?

Note that even if it would take 3 minutes (I am sometimes
using my client under ISDN) there is no problem as you can just continue
working with it.

Bernhard
