Recently we upgraded our FileMaker 6 files (FMP 6.5 + FM Server 5.5) to
the new FileMaker platform (FMP 9.0v3 + FMP Server 9.0.3.325).
Somehow the screen painting on the Windows XP client machines performs
very slow and the first time a layout is accessed, there is some
flickering of the screen, like all elements on the layout have te be
repainted. Why?
FileMaker 6.5 did never show this unwanted effect.
We're still in a test phase, so at the most 3 clients are simultaniously
connected.
Configuration of the machines:
FM Server: Windows XP SP2 / 2x2.0 GHz / 1.0 Gb RAM
FMP clients: Windows XP SP2 / 2.4 GHz / 1.0 Gb RAM
The effect is measured on all Windows XP machines (which are mostly
identically configurated), except on a single Mac client.
Is there a known fix for this or does somebody know how to fix it?
