JCIFS: file retrieval is too slow to be usable

Question

I was just testing JCIFS for accessing Windows shares. It is very slow to the point of being completely unusable.

import jcifs.smb.*;

class First {
    publ         


        

Answer 1

The solution added by @Xolve0 worked for me as well. The buffer issue in the SmbFileInput is also present when trying to write files. I used the same BufferedInputStream(new SmbFileInputStream(sFile)) to make the time execution decrease from 90secs to less than a second for a plain text file.

A quick way to identify this specific issue would be to track the time between the opening of the JCIFS path and the write of the file itself.
