I am running R2010a. Occasionally Matlab bogs down and takes several
minutes to refresh its windows (figures, desktop, command window,
etc). While Matlab is hung up, the Matlab main window shows a
snapshot of my computer's desktop, such as a web browser that I have
open underneath windows. This occurs when I am doing something
trivial, like making a simple line plot or editing an mfile. I have a
couple of shared drives on my Matlab path and my internet connection
speed is very slow. I also have a lot of directories on my Matlab
path. Could either of these explain it, and if so how to mitigate?
Or any other ideas and suggestions?
