Having a strange problem where whenever files are being uploaded or file checked the Amiga is slowing to a crawl. Be it trying to run another application at the same time, doing a local log in on another node or even another login over telnet, everything is slowed to a crawl.
I.E. if you had one telnet login doing a batch upload You can see everything slow down and things will stop until the upload is finished / next file in the batch is selected. so in between the upload it jumps back into action then slows down again. Internal commands are ok but anything that requires file access scrawls, be it opening a door, a bulletin, a bbsscreen.txt, it all crawls, just the same if you want to do something local like run an app.
This is running on a real amiga, an A4000 with 040 @ 25, 256mb ram, scsi hdd and os 3.9.
Does anyone have any suggestions as this has me scratching my head!
