I noticed my VIM write/save file for a network path is quite slow.
I found out VIM saves files with approximated speed of 20mbps (2.5MB/s).
Network is 1Gb/s local area network so I believe the bandwidth is not a problem.
Notepad text editor or Notepad++ saves the same file 10 times faster.
It does not make difference if I have access via windows share and UNC path (\\server_name
) or map it as local drive.
I made all tests with a clean VIM (gvim.exe -u NONE
) so I believe this not a plugin issue.
What else can I check to speed up file saving?
:set noswapfile
? If so, you might consider either disabling them unconditionally or setting the'directory'
option to ensure swap files are on local drives and not on a network share...
