G'day gentlemen. I have a quick question about the speed of FolderItem.CopyFileTo. I want to copy around 50 megs in 6 files at startup of the app (backing up database files, if user desires). If I copy these files on OS X 10.1.5 (PB G4/550) the Finder needs around 10 seconds to do the job. If I use "sourceFile.CopyFileTo targetFolder", the compiled app requires for the same job 110 seconds. And the HD is making noises like it's moving bazillions of terrabytes... Is this method supposed to be so slow, or am I doing something terribly wrong? Best regards Roland |
