Run Spell From Single User Machine On Network |
The information in this document applies to:
WordPerfect® 5.1 for DOS
Problem
Symptoms: What amount of network traffic will be caused by a single user running the spell-check from a workstation on a networked copy of WordPerfect 5.x for Windows or WP 5.1 DOS? Solutions: It depends on the following factors: 1. Where are the user's overflow files? If the files are on the network, then run the /D option and put the files on the local drive. Virtual files are used during spell-check and can cause a lot of unnecessary network traffic (unless of course you are working on a diskless workstation). 2. Memory. WP does not load the main dictionary into memory. Each check has to compare to the main dictionary as it sits on the network. The network will have a cache but it may not be a large one. WPCorp estimates that running spell-check can increase the bandwidth used by up to 5%. How/Why: The main dictionary must be read from the network to compare words. The dictionary is too large to fit in memory; it may fit in a large disk cache. |
