Matlab starts there & takes time to start as it does whatever it does when it starts, involving (my suspicion) using directories, that are at the end of a slow-to-establish network connection. I cannot follow you. Do I understand correctly: Your IT guys let you work over a slow network? Then the help is trivial: Tell the IT guys, that the current setup is too slow for efficient working. Then it's their job to install an environment, which let you do your job. Kind regards, Jan

Well I feel IT guys are the equivalent of Lawyers at our work environement. I could improve the speed of the MATLAB boot, by implementing the suggestions above. In addition to that I saved only the last 5 working directories - default is 20. |
