Sloooowwwww FileSearch

[DataMiner]

I have a filesearch set to search a bunch of folders and subfolders, as follows:

fs.lookin="m:\pcamain\public"
fs.filename="*_part_use.txt"
fs.lastmodified=msolastmodifiedthisweek
fs.searchsubfolders=true
fs.execute

This works fine, and runs in less than 60 seconds.

But if I change the filename line to

fs.filename="*_part_useimported.txt"

It takes about 30 minutes to find the 30 files that are there.

Why is this so slow, and what can I do to speed it up???

Any ideas????

If it runs fine with the first string and not with the second, I would say it is a network timing issue. Continue to benchmark using the two different strings and talk to your network folks.
