Keywords: McAfee AV 4.5 Slow INI File Processing
I have found what
we believe to be the cause of our problem (slow INI file processing on different OS's).
The machines experiencing the
extremely slow INI processing times were found to be running McAfee AV 4.5.
This version of the product is configured by McAfee to check INI files for
viruses by default. After removing the INI extension form McAfee, we were able
to attain times of approximately 6 seconds on machines (Compaq M700 700Mhz
laptop) that had been taking approximately 2 minutes to complete previously.
We
have chosen to use a different extension for our INI files and that also seems
to have resolved the problem without having to change the McAfee configuration.
